AB Sport and racism are usually two matters that look like polar opposites, yet thatattract each other relentlessly. One brings people and nations together regardless of theirorigins and beliefs; while the other sets them apart, resulting in conflicts, tension and aconstant imbalance. Two metaphorical sides of a coin that reflects a passion and anissue in the World’s greatest nation: the United States of America.In this essay I will reflect on how racism and sports have gone hand-in-hand fromthe last two centuries until the current date. This will consist of an overview on how theinteraction of these two matters has evolved through time, making emphasis on some keyhistorical events, characters and on how it is perceived nowadays.
