I’m stuck on a African Studies question and need an explanation.
Identify five of the following concepts, then apply them to your discussion of beliefs about race and sports performance:
Stacking
Central v. peripheral positions
Self-paced v. reactive tasks
Physical advantages
“Looser under pressureâ€
Only the strong survived slavery
African Americans were “bred†to be strong
Stereotyping
Outcome control
Prohibitive cost
Matriarchal Hypothesis
Role modeling
Differential Attractiveness of position
Write a short essay on what many presume to be African Americans’ unique athletic characteristics—the reasons many people believe that African Americans dominate some sports or sports positions. Your grade will be determined by your accurate use of concepts and the quality of your discussion.
