Description:This book is about the relationship between blackness, ethnicity, and speed. It is an in-depth ethnographic and anthropological study of a population of collegiate sprinters, constructed upon a formal model of ethnic and cultural identity which sees social interaction, expressed in the order and arrangement of social identities, as a means of establishing social networks through universal or cognitive rules. This study also introduces a unique method of intensive participant-observation; to really study a population, one must actively participate, placing the researcher in the social identity of those being studied.
