About this listen

A historical analysis of the conditions that caused the financial deprivation of historical black college football programs. The author explains the reasons that caused the economic disparity that now exists between predominately white college football programs and historically black college football programs. The role played by Jim Crow legislation that allowed predominately white college football programs to "steal" football revenues from historically black college football programs is revealed.

The author explains how the "strategic recruitment" and "designed intergration" of black blue chip football players after passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; allowed predominately white college football programs to avoid loss of national rankings and its monopoly on television revenues. The author explains why black blue chip football players abandoned historically black football teams after 1964 and elect to attend predominately white football programs today.
