Description
Michael Holding's powerful and inspiring book explores the intersection of sport and racism, sharing his personal story and those of iconic athletes to deliver a message of hope for the future and a vision for change.
Through conversations with legends like Usain Bolt, Adam Goodes, and Naomi Osaka, Holding explains how racism dehumanises people, how it works to achieve that end, and how it has been ignored by history and historians. He shares his own experiences of racism and the moment when he spoke out about it, sparking a global response.
With a focus on education and a desire to propose a way forward, Holding's book is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to understand the racism of today and how to create positive change.
