While the hegemonic ideology surrounding sport is that it brings different people together and ameliorates social boundaries, sociologists of sport have shown this to be a gross simplification. Instead, sport is often seen to reinforce and recreate social stereotypes and boundaries, especially as it regards race and the black athlete in body and culture. At best we can think of sport as a contested terrain for both maintaining and challenging racial norms and boundaries. The mediated black athlete has thus always, for better or worse, impacted popular white perceptions of blackness broadly and globally. While much work has been done to expose the workings of race and racism in sport, studies have tended to homogenize black populations and have not taken into account the varying histories and complexities of, specifically, black African migrant athletes.

  • The Great Race––Officially Renamed the Richard S
    GREAT RACE BY MARY GILBERT n September 25, 1977, some 400 intrepid men and women clad in Fit and Fabulous shorts, T-shirts, and athletic shoes congregated just outside Frick Park along Beechwood Boulevard near South Dallas Avenue. They had assembled to take part in a new venture— running the 6.2-mile Great Race. Then-mayor Richard S. Caliguiri, a Greenfield native who conceived of the 10K road race as a community fun run, purposely situated the start line outside his own front door. Following a mostly downhill course, runners passed through Squirrel Hill and Point Breeze, at 40 fringing Shadyside via a quick turn from Forbes Avenue onto Morewood Avenue. They pro- ceeded down Fifth Avenue through meds-and-eds-dense Oakland and the Lower Hill, taking in the sweeping panorama of the Monongahela River from Boulevard of the Allies before finishing Downtown in the grassy flatland of Point State Park. Carl Hatfield of Phillip, West Virginia, was the winner. Finishers received numbered popsi- cle sticks as timing devices to inform them of their places, a precursor to the numbered Frisbees used the following year. Fast forward to 2017. The Great Race––officially renamed the Richard S. Caliguiri City of Pittsburgh Great Race in 1993 to honor its founder, who died in 1988––is celebrating its 40th anniversary on September 24. While elements of the Great Race have changed over four decades, the East End still whole- heartedly offers the unwavering support critical to its longevity, from anchoring the start, to busi- nesses providing cheering sections, to residents setting up bands on their front porches and even allowing runners to use the bathrooms in their homes.

  • 2016 Winners
    2016 WINNERS Female Youth Athlete of the Year: Jenna Lang – Pacer Track Club The Perfect Attitude It’s hard to characterize anything in sports as perfect. As athletes and coaches we always find something to improve. Whether it’s an athlete’s fitness, the weather conditions or the facilities or course, you’ll rarely hear the term “perfect.” Jenna Lang of the Pacer Track club seems to defy the odds when considering the use of the word. She had a perfect 2016 cross country season winning all the races in her age division for the Youth Cross Country Challenge. But, what is most impressive is her perfect attitude about the sport. Her approach, her appreciation and her simple desire to be better. When asked about her progress from the 2015 to 2016 season, Lang explains “I just tried to do my best and push myself against the boys. I knew I could do better!” Lang not only pushed herself against the boys, she beat several of them as well! Jenna attends Neil Armstrong Middle School in Bethel Park, PA. She started running at 3 years old in a mile fun run with her Dad. Her time was an impressive 9:54! In addition to running cross country, Lang participates in track & field running the 800m and 1500m races. This year, Jenna will move up to the 3000m on the track. When she isn’t in a pair of running shoes, Lang participates in the yearbook and literacy magazine clubs for her school; she wants to eventually become a writer. When asked what she thought about being named the female youth athlete of the year for cross country, Lang was very appreciative.

Naturally, a camp with a devotion to swimming needs to have a prominent role in the line-up of offered activities. I've devoted my life to the goals and objectives outlined in the RFP for summer enrichment. As a swim coach and city resident, I am so excited by these opportunities for community, students, and myself. These high impact aquatics plans from CLOH.Org match my professional accomplishments throughout the years. I've started and led programs that are exactly what's being asked with the RFP, and I've studied the conditions of successful programs with a world-view. To me, the decision to blend swimming and summer camps is a 'no-brainer.' But swimming and water polo within the district tells a different story. Sadly, swimming needs to be defended with this proposal. The district wants energy and enthusiasm for its camps, but as it has been said to me in a May 2009 interview by the districts top athletic administrator, Michael Gavlik, “Swimming is a dying sport.” I objected to that notion.

As a nation, we are faced with immense challenges related to the cost and quality of clinical care, not to mention access to such care. Ironically, these challenges have grown more pronounced at a time when we have the oppor- tunity to take advantage of extraordinary leaps forward in science and medicine. Despite current challenges, we at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine are optimistic, and we remain committed to achieving transformational change in medical education, patient care, and biomedical research in a culture of humanism. As an educational and research-based institution, we also work every day to cultivate Ian environment that rewards creativity, collaboration, and innovation. As scientists, we encourage everyone to envision a world in which our civic leaders embrace the scientific method — a template for civil, disciplined, evidence-based, and sound discourse — to probe the problems that concern us all. In that spirit of shared purpose, I am pleased to highlight our recent progress on the pages of this report.
