  • The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children's Picturebooks
    Strides Toward Equality: The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children’s Picturebooks Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rebekah May Bruce, M.A. Graduate Program in Education: Teaching and Learning The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee: Michelle Ann Abate, Advisor Patricia Enciso Ruth Lowery Alia Dietsch Copyright by Rebekah May Bruce 2018 Abstract This dissertation examines nine narrative non-fiction picturebooks about Black American female athletes. Contextualized within the history of children’s literature and American sport as inequitable institutions, this project highlights texts that provide insights into the past and present dominant cultural perceptions of Black female athletes. I begin by discussing an eighteen-month ethnographic study conducted with racially minoritized middle school girls where participants analyzed picturebooks about Black female athletes. This chapter recognizes Black girls as readers and intellectuals, as well as highlights how this project serves as an example of a white scholar conducting crossover scholarship. Throughout the remaining chapters, I rely on cultural studies, critical race theory, visual theory, Black feminist theory, and Marxist theory to provide critical textual and visual analysis of the focal picturebooks. Applying these methodologies, I analyze the authors and illustrators’ representations of gender, race, and class. Chapter Two discusses the ways in which the portrayals of track star Wilma Rudolph in Wilma Unlimited and The Quickest Kid in Clarksville demonstrate shifting cultural understandings of Black female athletes. Chapter Three argues that Nothing but Trouble and Playing to Win draw on stereotypes of Black Americans as “deviant” in order to construe tennis player Althea Gibson as a “wild child.” Chapter Four discusses the role of family support in the representations of Alice Coachman in Queen of the Track and Touch the Sky.

    2012 News Page 1 of 18 The Website of Maria Bueno, Tennis Champion 2012 NEWS ROGER FEDERER VISITS SAO PAULO, 6-9 December 2012 The Gillette Federer Tour kicked off Roger’s first South American visit in Sao Paulo, Brazil, last week and he was keen to involve Maria in the proceedings. The two met at the Player Party, where Roger was joined by Maria Sharapova, Caroline Wozniacki, Victoria Azarenka, Serena Williams, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and the Bryan Brothers. Roger invited Maria to hit with him so he could see her legendary backhand for himself and arrangements were made for them to take to the court laid at the Ibirapuera indoor arena. Maria instructed him not to hit ‘anything spinny’, to which Roger replied that he would play her like he does with his parents and afterwards admitted she was way much better than them! Later he posted a picture of them on his Facebook page, saying: “About to play tennis Maria Esther Bueno… she has won 19 Grand Slam titles (7 singles, 11 doubles and 1 mixed)… she still plays amazing!” As for Maria, she was just astonished at how well he hit the ball. “He sliced one backhand that sped off the court like it had skidded off a line,” she said. “I said: Whoa! What was that? And he just laughed! “It was a fantastic experience and I think he enjoyed it too!” The two players swapped gifts – she gave him a framed photograph, which she signed ‘You are simply the best’ while he presented her with one of his rackets, personally signed on the handle.

Can Bolt do it for the second time? 2) Can Bolt win 200m for the third time to surpass Michael Johnson and Calvin Smith? 3) No country other than US ever won multiple medals in this event. Can Jamaica do it? 4) No European won medal at both 100m and 200m? Can Lemaitre change that?

    Serena Williams has earned the respect of a world that can't bear to give i... about:reader?url=https://www.salon.com/2018/09/10/serena-williams-ha... salon.com Serena Williams has earned the respect of a world that can't bear to give it to her 5-6 minutes Growing up as a young ball player in '90s, I was taught that combination of following the rules, understanding the basic fundamentals of basketball and hard work could conquer anything — anything, that is, except the Jordan Rule. The Jordan Rule, named after Michael Jordan, was basically an unspoken law that means referees have to give the best player (i.e. Jordan) special privileges, based on the notion that he was the best, and that fans pay to see superstars thrive, and when superstars win, the league as a whole wins. Back in the day, you’d hear “Jordan Rule,” referenced when a star took an extra step that could easily be called as a traveling violation, or cursed out a ref, or even assaulted another player. And the rule is still prevalent today — unless you are a woman. Over the weekend, 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams, the greatest tennis player ever, and arguably the greatest athlete ever, became the focus of one of the most embarrassing moments in the history of professional sports. Some headlines would lead you to believe that the embarrassment was due to Serena's actions during and after her loss to 20-year- 1 of 4 10/9/2020, 2:39 PM Serena Williams has earned the respect of a world that can't bear to give i..

  • Roger Federer Tops List of World's Highest-Paid Athletes
    18 Established 1961 Sunday, May 31, 2020 Sports Photo of the day ‘Am I next?’ Tennis phenom Gauff upset by black man’s death LOS ANGELES: Rising US tennis star Coco Gauff has added her voice to those expressing outrage at the death of an unarmed black man in Minnesota who was in police hands. Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, who can be seen in video kneeling on the neck of a handcuffed George Floyd for at least five minutes, was charged with murder in Floyd’s death on Friday as violent protests continued around the country. Gauff, a 16-year-old African American, posted a TikTok video on her Twitter feed, juxtaposing an image of herself clad in a black hoodie with photos of Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Trayvon Martin and others. Arbery, a 25-year-old black man, was killed on February 23 while running in a residential neighbor- hood in Brunswick, Georgia. Taylor an emergency medical technician who was black, was shot and killed by police who burst into her home in Kentucky in March. Martin was a high school student when he was shot in 2012 in a killing that helped spark the Black Lives Matter movement. “Am I next?” a caption asks, as Gauff slowly raises her face and hands to the camera. “This is why I am using my voice to fight against racism,” continues the caption, over a gallery of slain African Americans that also includes Breonna “I am using my voice,” the cap- tion concludes, “Will you use yours?” Gauff burst on the international tennis scene last year at Wimbledon where she came through qualifying and beat her idol Venus Williams in the first round before exiting in the round of 16.

Media images of elite female athletes were deconstructed in order to analyze how media images of female athletes mold and influence public opinion and discourse. The findings of this study discuss stereotypes of femininity, while deconstructing how the media influences the societal interpretation of femininity, and how this affects the advancement of women’s sport.

  • Another Dash Into the Record Books (Wind:-2.1 M/S)
    Another Dash into the Record Books (wind: -2.1 m/s) J. R. Mureika Department of Computer Science University of Southern California Los Angeles, CA 90089-2520 When I first performed some of the analysis herein, I thought: “Wow! Bailey gets another title!”. Unfortunately, that was before August 3rd, and the 100m final in Athens. Now, Donovan Bailey doesn’t hold the World sprint crown. It’s slipped and fallen south of the border (your border, that is!). Maurice Greene, a relative unknown with a PB of 10.43s three years ago, reigned victorious at 9.86s, matching the third best legal clocking ever. But, the events of that day didn’t change the overall result of my work. By virtue of the race in question, some would say that Bailey is no longer the “World’s Fastest Man”. But has he lost his place in the record books altogether? Currently, the 9.84s from Atlanta is still holding strong. Can’t we say more about our current international sprint sensation? The truth is: not only can we say more about Bailey (who still seems to have the knack of saying too much about his competition!), but we can say something great about the “Blast off! guy” himself (to quote Bogdan Poprawski), Robert Esmie, perhaps our sprint celebrity for Syndey in 2000? Following the National Championships in Abbotsford, the media jumped all over Bailey’s winning performance. The World Record holder had run a mediocre, sub-par 10.03s, well off his 9.84 WR performance of 1996. Even a medal hope looked grim for the defending champion, who was himself displeased with his race, moaning and groaning of leg injuries and viruses.
