Playing Out of Bounds investigates the North American Chinese Invitational Volleyball Tournament (NACIVT), an annual event that began in the 1930s in the streets of Manhattan and now attracts 1200 competitors from the U.S. and Canada. Its two key features are the 9-man game, where there are nine instead of the usual six volleyball players on the court, and the fact that player eligibility is limited to "100% Chinese" and Asian players, as defined in the tournament rules. These rules that limit competitors to specific ethno-racial groups is justified by the discrimination that Chinese people faced when they were denied access to physical activity spaces, and instead played in the alleyways and streets of Chinatowns. Drawing on interviews, participant-observation, and analysis of websites and tournament documents, Playing Out of Bounds explores how participants understand and negotiate their sense of belonging within this community of volleyball players and how membership within and the boundaries of this community are continually being (re)defined. This identity/community building occurs within a context of anti-Asian racism, growing numbers of mixed race players, and fluidity of what it means to be Canadian, American, Chinese, and Asian.

Out of Bounds explores the trajectories and challenges of exceptional men and women athletes who later became outstanding academic scholars. The book reports findings from participatory, qualitative research, and problematizes ways we have come to think about the separation and integration of athletic and academic practices - embodied in both institutions and individuals, and reflected through intersecting categories and experiences of race, gender, and social class. Through the provocative and surprising narratives of gifted athletes who became prolific scholars, this book offers significantly new ways of thinking about the connections, contradictions, and possibilities of sports and schools.

This book uses the North American Chinese Invitational Volleyball Tournament (NACIVT) to examine processes of constructing identity, belonging, and community, and how these processes mobilize, deploy, and are therefore embedded in intersecting and socially constructed notions of race, gender, class, and culture.

A collection of short stories - four previously published and three new - linked by the theme of young people experiencing personal dilemmas. All are set in South Africa, first under apartheid and then after the first democratic elections. They cover the period from 1950 to 2000 and reflect the lives of a range of young people, black and white, living in what was for many years seen as the world's most openly racist society.

"Diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives take many forms. One is to help members of underrepresented groups increase their opportunities for professional development, networking, finding mentors, and accessing opportunities such as those that occur on the golf course, where executives often "audition" potential new hires or identify high-potential candidates for advancement. It is not a level playing field. Golf is still a boys' club--a White boys' club. Dr. Eric Boyd is on a mission to promote golf literacy for the purpose of advancing social inclusion, diversity and equitable professional opportunities in the workplace. In this book he focuses on the importance of practicing on the course six key leadership traits that are woven through each chapter-Curiosity, Adaptability, Empowerment, Integrity, Mindfulness, Strategy. He teaches his students and his readers how to demonstrate their leadership skills, improve their networking abilities, and "close the deal" by ensuring a follow-up invitation"--

A HARD-HITTING MEMOIR FROM A LIVING LEGEND In this outspoken and fearless autobiography, Jim Brown, arguably the greatest football player who ever lived, shares his story in the same way he played the game: full throttle, pull no punches, and don't spare a drop. His nine bone-jarring Hall of Fame years in the National Football League, and the multitude of records he set, are football legend. His second life as a film star who became the first black man to do a love scene with a white woman on an American screen is part of Hollywood lore. Incapable of anything less than total candor, Brown's uncensored words in these pages, like his electric breakaway runs on the gridiron, wield the power to astonish and amaze. Here, Brown names names, tells the truth behind the headlines, and reveals who the toughest, grittiest football warriors really were. His reflections on sex, fame, and his highly publicized encounters with the law are both frank and hilarious. His stories about cocaine and women are ugly and disturbing, as are his observations about the pervasive role of racism in the NFL. Insightful, impressive, and revelatory, Out of Bounds delivers the captivating play-by-play of an outstanding life.
