Description

Explore a complex chapter of American history with The Black Press and Black Baseball, 1915-1955: A Devil's Bargain. Part of the Routledge Research in Sports History series, this book examines the difficult choices faced by Black journalists during a transformative era. Readers will follow the story of how the Black press worked to build up Black baseball, only to later lead the fight for integration. This successful campaign for civil rights in sports created a paradox, as it contributed to the eventual decline of the very leagues the press helped establish. By using a thematic approach, the text organizes its analysis by decade. Each chapter focuses on a specific event or phenomenon from the roughly forty years that the Black leagues existed. This structure provides a clear look at the evolution of sports journalism and the social shifts that changed the landscape of American baseball forever.
