Analysis Assignment: Gender, Race, and Ethnicity in Sport Assignment<\/p>\n
\nThe face of sports in America has changed dramatically over the past 50 years through the
\ninclusion of women and athletes of color (African Americans, Latinos, and Asians) at all levels
\nof participation. Where white males once dominated sport, the balance in many sports such as
\nbasketball and football has now shifted to dominance by black athletes. African Americans and
\nLatinos have also both increased their representation in baseball.<\/p>\n
\nIn addition, changes in American society in the last 50 years have dramatically altered the roles
\nfor women, but the quest for equalizing women\u2019s opportunity in sport is still short of its goal.
\nWhile a few female athletes gained fame during the early 1900\u2019s (Babe Didrikson Zaharias in
\ngolf and Helen Wills Moody in tennis), sport opportunity for women did not change until the
\npassage of Title IX in 1972.
\nDespite the integration of athletes of all genders and races into sport, there are still challenges.
\nWith this in mind, and based on your sports interests and career goals, do you believe sport plays
\na positive role or a negative role in promoting diversity and equal opportunity based on gender
\nand ethnicity? Describe pros and cons of each view and then decide which list is more powerful.
\nAlso, discuss additional strategies not listed in the textbook to eliminate sexism and racism in
\nsport.<\/p>\n
