    Rebellion, Resistance, and the Black Athletes of the Civil Rights Movement ______

    FULL COURT PRESS: REBELLION, RESISTANCE, AND THE BLACK ATHLETES OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in History ____________________________________ By Michael Dillon McCormick Thesis Committee Approval: Professor Volker Janssen, Chair Professor Allison Varzally, Department of History Professor Toby C. Rider, Department of Kinesiology Summer, 2016 ABSTRACT During the Civil Rights era of the United States, several black athletes transcended their roles as physical competitors and transitioned into the realm of social politics. Unsatisfied with their social status as mere athletic figures, these men used their cultural relevance as a platform to demand racial equality and citizenship for all African Americans. However, when they did, they were often met with significant resistance from the white power structures of America. Mainstream culture was willing to accept these men as sports stars and entertainers, but not as equal citizens. Lingering ideologies based upon social Darwinian beliefs and Jim Crow policies still plagued the nation, and prevented athletes like Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali, and Bill Russell from completely assimilating into American society. The result is an intersection of sport, culture, race, and politics at a critical point in the history of our nation. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ..................................................................................................................

    The Legacy of Annie Mae Aquash

    “SLAYING THE SUN WOMAN”: THE LEGACY OF ANNIE MAE AQUASH BRYAN RINDFLEISCH Around 2:30 pm on 24 February 1976, local rancher Roger Amiotte walked along the fenced border of his property near Wanblee, South Dakota and discovered a woman’s body “lying at the bottom of an approximately 30 foot steep embankment.”1 After two autopsies and a two-week long investigation, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) released the deceased’s identity as Annie Mae Aquash, who, according to investigative journalist Paul DeMain, was the “highest ranking female leadership member in the American Indian Movement” (AIM).2 While the initial autopsy revealed the cause of death to be the result of “exposure” to winter weather, a second inquiry exposed a gunshot wound to the back of the head, which confirmed suspicions of foul play.3 At first, AIM accused the FBI of collaborating with the Pine Ridge reservation tribal chairman, Dick Wilson, and his vigilante police force (GOON squad) in Aquash’s assassination. Further, AIM alleged that the federal government conspired to cover-up the murder. The FBI, on the other hand, suspected that AIM was responsible for Aquash’s death. For the next three decades, the federal government and 1 Special Agent in Charge (SAC) Norman Zigrossi, Anna Mae Aquash Murder (Teletype) to the Director of the F.B.I.
