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.

  • More About the Fastest Boy in the World
    MORE ABOUT THE FASTEST BOY IN THE WORLD HOW I CAME TO WRITE THE BOOK In 1968 I was living in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia. One morning I went out to the airport to meet a friend off her plane. I went upstairs in the terminal building for a cup of coffee, and looking out of the window, I was startled to see a lion sitting on the tarmac outside the airport building. "What's that doing there?" I asked someone. "Doesn't anyone realise?" "Didn't you know?" I was told. "Abebe Bikila, our champion runner, is about to arrive home from the Olympic Games in Mexico. The Emperor has sent the lion to greet him. His Majesty will soon be here himself." And true enough, a short while later, a Rolls Royce appeared, and out stepped Emperor Haile Selassie, King of Kings, Elect of God, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah. He took no notice of the lion, and the lion took no notice of him. A few weeks earlier, I'd been presented to the Emperor. I'd been ushered forwards to where he sat on a makeshift throne at an outdoor ceremony. He was a short man, quite tiny in fact, but he had more dignity and charisma than anyone I had ever met in my life. I bowed, he said a few words to me in French, nodded graciously, and an usher moved me on. The plane landed, and Abebe Bikila appeared at the door of the aircraft. He was the first Ethiopian ever to have won a gold medal at the Olympic Games.

  • Girmay Birhanu Favoured at Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon by Paul Gains
    Girmay Birhanu Favoured at Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon by Paul Gains Three decades ago, the East African domination of marathon running began with both quality and quantity of great runners increasing exponentially. It can also be said they have shifted the goal posts when it comes to frequency of racing the ‘classic distance.’ When Ethiopia’s Girmay Birhanu lines up for the 2015 Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon May 24th - an IAAF Silver Label once again - it will be his fourth marathon in seven months. The astonishing rate would buckle the knees of most westerners but Birhanu serves up quality performances every time he races. With a personal best of 2:05:49 from the 2014 Dubai Marathon, where he placed 3rd, the now 28 year old has traveled the world seeking fast races and a pay cheque. Like many of his countrymen blessed with running talent, he intends to retire and start a business in a few years. On April 5th of this year, Birhanu won the Daegu Marathon in Korea with a time of 2:07:26, almost a minute ahead of his nearest rival. Lest one think that seven weeks between marathons is insane, we are reminded that a year ago Yemane Tsegaye came to Ottawa having won Daegu, then proceeded to smash the course and Canadian All- Comers’ record with a time of 2:06:54. “Yes I have recovered well and now started normal training,” Birhanu reports after being asked the obvious question. “Entoto, Sendafa, Sululta I like to train in all of those places. I am training with Gebretsadik Abraha (personal best of 2:06:21) and many other young athletes.
