    AFRO-DESCENDANT SOCCER STARS AND THE INCONSISTENCIES OF RACE, CLASS, AND IDENTITY IN ECUADOR By CARLOS A. INIGUEZ A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2012 1 © 2012 CARLOS A. INIGUEZ 2 To my mom and dad 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank all those who have guided me on this personal and academic journey. To my committee, Dr. Wood, Dr. Sorek, and Dr. Deere, thank you for your support and patience throughout this process. In particular, Dr. Wood, your guidance and encouragement helped keep me focused and motivated even as I felt the pressure of time. I thank all the soccer players, managers, agents, coaches, and other industry workers that gave me a glimpse of what it's like to be an Afro-descendant playing sports in Ecuador. I was embraced with open arms by everybody I met and candidly spoken to about the issues. My contacts allowed me an entry point that enabled me to relate to all respondents- I was not an outsider at any time. I thank my aunt Zaida and uncle Humberto for helping me with my initial contacts. In Quito, Pablo Acosta opened the golden door to some of the most important people related to Ecuadorian soccer. My cousin Holger and Professor Sixto gave me the most exclusive access that even a seasoned sports journalist could not enjoy during the most important dates for Ecuadorian soccer in 2011; without them my project would have been impossible.
