With what consequences? The authors of Sexual Minorities in Sports shed light on the dynamics of sexual prejudice in venues ranging from high school athletics to the Olympics and the major leagues. Case studies of the experiences of LGBT athletes, coaches, and administrators also take account of the important role of race. Empirically rich and full of theoretical insights, the book concludes by pinpointing opportunities for confronting prejudice and empowering individuals across the lines of both gender and sexual orientation UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781626370944 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781626370944 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781626370944/original ER -
