In 1998, Bill Clinton hosted a town hall on race and sports. 'If you've got a special gift,' the president said of athletes, 'you owe more back.' Gift and Grit shows how the sports industry has incubated racial ideas about advantage and social debt since the civil rights era by sorting athletes into two broad categories. The gifted athlete received something for nothing, we're told, and owes the team, the fan, the city, God, nation. The gritty athlete received nothing and owes no one. The distinction between gift and grit is racial, but also, Joseph Darda reveals, racializing: It has structured new racial categories and redrawn racial lines. Sports, built on an image of fairness, inform how we talk about advantage and deservedness in other domains, including immigration, crime, education, and labor. Gift and Grit tells the stories of Roger Bannister, Roberto Clemente, Martina Navratilova, Florence Griffith Joyner, and LeBron James – and the story their stories tell about the shifting meaning of race in America. Paul Knepper covered the New York Knicks for Bleacher Report. His first book was The Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All. His next book, Moses Malone: The Life of a Basketball Prophet, will be out in the fall of 2025. You can reach Paul at paulknepper@gmail.com and follow him on Twitter @paulieknep.

This week my guest was on the show. He's got over 20+ years in sports journalism. He spent 15+ years as a writer for the Toronto Star As a sports reporter where he covered everything from the CFL to MLB to the UFC, writing daily stories but specializing in longer features that explore the intersection of sports and social issues. He is now CBC sport's first senior contributor. In 2004 he won the National Newspaper Award for "Long Shots," a serial narrative about a high school basketball team from Scarborough. 5 years ago he stepped on stage to give a Ted talk where he touched on race, sports and telling true stories. I encourage you to check it out if you have a few minutes on hand. he's been featured in the new york times where he writes on boxing news. if you a boxing fan like me, you'll love the articles he writes. My guest this week is Morgan Campbell. Morgan is well-decorated in his field that isn't afraid to share his honest thoughts about what he writes about. He's built a reputation, a following and a brand by examining the game behind the game. In his ted talk, something he said towards the end of the video stuck with me. he said "Once you get rid of the cliches, and get rid of the safety nets, you are left with the truth. And journalists are in the truth business. I had a great conversation with Morgan. We touched on a lot of different topics, including: - The process of writing his memoir (Coming soon) - Cultural shifts Growing up as an American/Canadian - Losing his father as a teenager to cancer - The backstory behind the start of his journalism career - Stories from his years with the Toronto star + Anson Carter incident - Why integrity and truth should be the foundation of every story - The backstory behind why he left the Toronto star - His Ted Talk Entited: "Race, Sports and telling true stories." - Gervonta Davis Vs Ryan Garcia And so much more. But before you check out the episode, if you could do me a huge favour and leave a rating and review of the podcast? that would greatly help out the show.
