This is a photo of the 1986 Marshall University basketball team returning to the court after a timeout. The photo was taken at the University New Mexico during an NCAA basketball tournament. The photo shows four players walking on to the court. According to the words of James Henderson featured in the photo, the last one trailing. This team was united by green and white, color and race was not an issue on the team.
When African American players made these types of statements about their collegiate teams it was still refreshing and reassuring even in the eighties. The Marshall University campus sits it what we can call part of the Deep South, West Virginia. If African American students can play here in the eighties and feel free of many of the racial issues that still affected many outside of the gym then progress was definitely still being made. By the nineteen eighties college football fields and basketball courts had been targeted as a place, for many African Americans to escape the large social issues that plagued many of them back home. Some of these issues include racism, poverty, crime and countless other obstacles.
While some still sited progress in the eighties many still saw college campuses and collegiate sports as a disappointment and another source of frustration as many found out that even in the eighties and nineties things were still eerily similar to the past as it relates to the treatment of blacks. However with many of the issues that many faced in the eighties, I think it’s still fair to say that it was a lot better in the eighties and now, than maybe the sixties and seventies, and definitely any time before that. Race had always been a part of collegiate athletics but the difference for many seemed to be that the volume had been turned down and it just wasn’t as loud and as noticeable as it was in the past for many. There is still progress being made even from the eighties to now. Progress is more noticeable in some sports than others. Example, African American head basketball coaches can be seen on the court at many of the nation’s larger universities, but the same cannot be said for college football coaches at Football Bowl Subdivision schools. There are just 6 Black head coaches out 119 FBS programs. This is just another indication that while progress has been made there is still a ways to go.

何冊かのうちこの本の写真が素晴らしくて一番刺激を受けました｡
これはパブのガイドブックなのだけど、載っているのはいわゆるガイドくさいこんな店だよ的な写真ではなくて､パブの空気が伝わってくる写真。ちゃんとその店の風景が見える写真。
まるで写真集のよう｡
この編集自体にも驚いたけど､そこには、私がこんな風に撮りたいと思っていたショットが次々と。。。そのひとつひとつがパブとそこにいる人々の息を感じる写真でした。
こういう、生きている、ライブなパブの写真が撮りたいんだよね・・・とても難しいけれど。
とＳさんと語って、頑張ろう、と誓った｡

Three stuffed guys sprawl on a couch in Oxford, Connecticut as if mowed down by machine-gun fire, after earlier partaking of a sumptious Thanksgiving feast. About this time, they were supposed to be engaged in lively conversation with other family members. But there they were, dead to the world. The TV was on, showing a New England Patriot's game, but it went unheard and unseen. Well, at least they're not trying to be something they aren't.
偶然合流したグループの方たちが帰られたあと、ひとりテーブルで過ごしていたらマネージャーS氏が本を貸してくださった｡
Sさんが写真､特にパブでの写真を撮るきっかけになった本だそうだ｡
このあと本を開いて、あんなに感動するとは思わなかった｡
Revolution coach hamming it up with the girls (no, i'm not losing touch with reality-there are several Revolution teams present, and two of them are coached by young ladies barely older than the girls (well-the gals are in their mid-teens, while the coaches are 20-somethings that look like teenagers themselves))
