The Burden of Over-Representation: Race, Sport, and Philosophy

Grant Farred, a Professor of Africana Studies at Cornell University, explores themes of identity and culture through his works. His notable titles include "Long Distance Love: A Passion for Football," which examines the intersection of sports and personal connection, and "Martin Heidegger Saved My Life," reflecting on philosophy's impact on existence. Additionally, "In Motion, At Rest: The Event of the Athletic Body" delves into the physicality of sports and its significance in understanding the human experience.
