Watch this striking highlight from our 2024 Race & Sports event.
Attendees at this year’s Race & Sports listened to the fascinating insights of William “Bill” Rhoden, former award-winning sports columnist for The New York Times and author of “Forty Million Dollar Slaves: The Rise, Fall and Redemption of the Black Athlete,” and “Third and A Mile: The Trials and Triumphs of The Black Quarterback.” He was joined in conversation with Wharton’s own Kenneth Shropshire during this partnered event between the Wharton Coalition for Equity and Opportunity, the Center for Africana Studies, and the Wharton Sports Analytics and Business Initiative (WSABI).
