Blood Brothers Book
- Having read the book, Blood Brothers, connect the story of Muhammad Ali and his relationship with Malcolm X to various readings in the class. For example, how would you connect Ali’s understanding of sport and society to Hilliard’s idea of how modern televised sport keeps us from having a “sociological imagination” (something Ali seemed to possess)? Also, how does the history of sport help us understand both Ali’s political views and the negative reaction he received when he joined the Nation of Islam and eventually refused to fight in Vietnam? Finally, how can we understand Ali’s political viewpoint in terms of other athletes’ political organizing (you can use Candaele and Drier’s article as well as CRT if you think it is appropriate).
