    Sport and Racial Discrimination in Colonial Zimbabwe: A Reanalysis Reassessing the Myth of Multiracial Sport in Rhodesia Following the exclusion of South Africa from international sporting events because of strict racial segregation on the playing field in the late 1960s, the anti-apartheid movement focused on Rhodesia, a white minority-ruled country in south-central Africa that also had a tradition of racial discrimination. Sport in Rhodesia was never sharply segregated by law as in apartheid South Africa, and a strong narrative developed both in Rhodesia and in the international press that Rhodesian sport was multiracial and should not be punished as South African sport had been.1 The minority white settler population fervently believed segregation in Rhodesia was never as insidious or complete as segregation in South Africa.2 However, racial discrimination in sport still did take place in Rhodesian sport in less overt ways, as sport was a sphere of contested control for much of the colonial period of Southern Rhodesia and then the period of unilateral independence after the white settler minority seceded from the British Empire in 1965. The development of sport in majority-ruled Zimbabwe after 1980 bore a strong imprint of the racialization of sport in colonial Rhodesia. Sporting life in Rhodesia was especially vibrant as the white settler community fully participated in a sporting culture that could rival Britain itself. Sport was an important tool of social acculturation and identity-formation among white settlers themselves, but it also proved to be a tool of social control over the black African population. British colonizers viewed sport as a ‘civilizing’ device to teach important lessons of hygiene and fitness in a manner strictly controlled by the white state.3 However, because of the importance sport held to the white settler minority, it remained a site of social protest and incomplete domination, and some black African autonomy survived in association football, athletics, and other sports.

  • My Favorite Sport My Favorite Sport ----- HIGH JUMP
    My favorite sport My favorite sport ----- HIGH JUMP High jump is my favorite sport cause it is a challenging sport and it’s difficult to do it well. I think the pose of high jump is very elegant and beautiful, so I love this sport and I’m interested in learning high jump. History of high jump High jump were first popular in Scotland in the early 19th century, it incorporated to the first modern Olympics Games in 1896. High jump has undergone the most radical changes of technique. The Eastern Cut-off Western Roll and Straddle, they’re methods used by the athletes before. Nowdays, Fosbury Flop involves going over with the jumper's back to the bar and became possible with the introduction of landing beds in the early 1960s and popularised by the 1968 Olympic champion Dick Fosbury. What is high jump The high jump is a track and field event in which competitors must jump unaided over a horizontal bar placed at measured heights without dislodging it. How it works Athlete jump unaided and take off from one foot over a four-metre horizontal bar. They have to clear the greatest height without knocking down the bar. All athlete have three attempts per height, although they can elect to ‘pass’. If three consecutive failures at the same heights, the competitor will be knock out. If competitors are tied on the same height, the winner will have had the fewest failures at that height. Therefore, a jump-off will decide the winner. Do you know that Built up shoes were used by many top jumpers from1956 to1957, with soles of up to five centimetres.
