    Description
    Examines American sports history, the portrayal of sport, and the contributions made by members representing various gender, ethnic, and socio-economic backgrounds as depicted through sports-related films. Topics will cover how representative films' artistic freedom enhance the telling of the story without changing the narrative. The culture, gender, historical context, and socio-economic circumstances will be analyzed through a sports lens.
