Advancing the Ball: Race, Reformation, and the Quest for Equal Coaching Opportunity in the NFL - Law and Current Events Masters
Duru, N. Jeremi (Associate Professor of Law, Associate Professor of Law, Temple University School of Law)
Two days before Super Bowl XLI in 2007, the game's two opposing head coaches posed with the trophy one of them would hoist after the contest. It was a fairly unremarkable event, except that both coaches were African American - a fact that was as much of a story as the game itself. As Jeremi Duru reveals in Advancing the Ball, this unique milestone resulted from the work of a determined group of people whose struggles to expand head coaching opportunities forAfrican Americans ultimately changed the National Football League. The book chronicles the campaign of former Cleveland Browns offensive lineman John Wooten to undo decades of discriminatory head coach hiring practices and spur a movement that would substantially impact the NFL and, potentially, the nation. Featuring an impassioned foreword by Coach Tony Dungy, Advancing the Ball offers an eye-opening, first-hand look at how a few committed individuals initiated a sea change in America's most popular sport and added an extraordinary new chapter to the civil rights story.
