Black Bases/Black Ice: The Multi-Sport Careers of Canadian Black Athletes and the Struggle for Social Justice Colin Howell The history of sport and race in North America has often been presented as a story of advancement from segregation to inclusion, part of a broader and unfolding process of modernization. This liberal narrative, conforming to a belief in social progress, celebrates the gradual vanquishing of intolerance over the course of the 20thcentury. The careers of black baseball and hockey players in the first half of the century, however, suggest a more complicated and ambiguous history, where race relations are continuously framed and reframed in ways that secure (white) hegemonic influence and demand a continuing struggle for social justice and equality for people of colour and others suffering various forms of dispossession.

  • HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY the 2019 Season Signifies the 42Nd Season for the Nashville Sounds

    HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY The 2019 season signifies the 42nd season for the Nashville Sounds. It’s the 22nd season as a member of the 16- team Pacific Coast League, and the first as the Triple-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. Despite the 42nd season as the Nashville Sounds, baseball’s roots in Nashville go back to the 19th Century. In fact, baseball has been played in Middle Tennessee since at least 1860, when the Republican Banner newspaper published a July 25th report on the game’s popularity the previous fall. During the Civil War, Union soldiers temporarily based here helped spread the game in the local community. Home field was a place known as the Sulphur Springs Bottom, a half-mile north of today’s state capitol. When the original Southern League was organized in 1885, Nashville was a charter city and games were played at Nashville’s Athletic Park, as the Sulphur Springs Bottom location came to be known. The city fielded several entries in the league over the next ten years -- the Americans (1885-86), the Blues (1887), the Tigers (1893-94), and the Seraphs (1895) -- but was unable to claim a pennant. When the Southern Association was formed in 1901, Athletic Park – which was later given the name Sulphur Dell by famed sportswriter Grantland Rice -- became the permanent home to the Nashville Volun- teers (or Vols, for short), who played there for the next 61 years. Under the guidance of manager Newt Fisher, the Nashville club won the SA’s first two pennants. The team, which was not known as the Vols until a “name the team” contest conducted prior to the 1908 season, continued to build a solid, loyal fan base.

CLUBBIE: TWO SEASONS WITH BASEBALL’S BROKEN DREAMERS by Gregory Scott Larson B.A. May 2011, Winthrop University A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Old Dominion University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF FINE ARTS CREATIVE WRITING OLD DOMINION UNIVERSITY May 2017 Approved by: Michael Pearson (Director) Joe Cosco (Member) Joe Jackson (Member) ABSTRACT CLUBBIE: TWO SEASONS WITH BASEBALL’S BROKEN DREAMERS Gregory Scott Larson Old Dominion, University, 2017 Director: Dr. Michael Pearson The main theme of this manuscript is disillusionment. In order for this theme to hit home, I needed the character called Greg Larson, along with the reader, and (for the most part) the narrator, to discover this world of minor league baseball at the same time. This would allow me to tease the illusion—to set up baseball as this grand nostalgic enterprise in the beginning in a way that all three of us could believe it (with the exception of some expository asides from the narrator).

    A History of Windsor's Parks

    Aboriginal Park Commonly known as: Aboriginal Park Former/other names: Indian Memorial Park Location: Northwood near E.C. Row Expressway Property Acquired: 1972 Acreage: 2.9 Official designation: Community park During the construction of the E.C. Row Expressway, Indian artefacts were discovered and moved to this site. A portion of the park is a memorial for indigenous peoples and is left in a natural state. The other portion of the park has been developed with a basketball key and playground equipment in co-operation with the developer for the surrounding residences. Adstoll Park and Arena Commonly known as: Adstoll Park, Adstoll Arena Former/other names: none Location: at Grand Marais and Pillette Roads Property acquired: 1965 Acreage: 4.35 Official designation: Community park Although Adstoll Park was officially established in 1965, it was not until 1967, when Mayor John Wheelton performed the ground-breaking ceremonies for a new outdoor arena, that the park site began physically demonstrating its vast recreational potential. The outdoor arena, built at a cost of nearly $90,000, was specially designed to allow for the installation of a roof at some point in the future. That future arrived sooner than many area residents expected; in 1973, the City financed the complete enclosure of the rink, spending $435,000 on the project. Just three years later, two tennis courts were installed at the park. Today, tennis courts and an assortment of playground equipment, including a creative play unit are located at the park, but it is during the winter when children and adults of all ages hit the ice surface, that Adstoll Arena really comes alive.
