Notes
Description
Discussing the narrative absent from the classic sports movie Hoosiers, a veteran sportswriter, delving into the history of the Crispus Attucks Tigers, an all-Black team playing in the 1950s in a racially divided Indiana, while dissecting the myths and lore of Hoosier hoops, places the game in the context of migration, segregation, and integration, enhancing our understanding of this country's struggle for civil rights.
