About this listen
This is John Drabinski and you’re listening to The Black Studies podcast, a Mellon grant sponsored series of conversations examining the history of the field. Our conversations engage with a wide range of activists and scholars - senior figures in the field, late doctoral students, and everyone in between, culture workers, and political organizers - in order to explore the cultural and political meaning of Black Studies as an area of inquiry and its critical methods.
Today’s conversation is with Tracie Canada, who teaches in the Departments of Cultural Anthropology and Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies at Duke University. She is the founding director of the Health, Ethnography and Race through Sports Lab and is the author of Tackling the Everyday: Race and Nation in Big-Time College Football. In this conversation, we discuss the cultural and racial politics of sports, particularly sports in higher-ed spaces, and the place of those racial politics in Black Studies and in the study of Black life.
