Description
"In post-World War II America, when professional football owners scheduled exhibition games in the South and later placed franchises, they simply overlooked Jim Crow conditions endured by African American players. To Live and Play in Dixie is an oral history from the players themselves on how they battled discrimination while playing and living in the still-segregated South"--,Provided by publisher.
