Before making Major League Baseball, the minor leagues is a key starting point. Join the author as he provides a snapshot of his coverage of the minor league teams in Gwinnett (AAA affiliate of the Atlanta Braves), Chattanooga (AA affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds), Greenville (A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox), Greensboro (A affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates), Birmingham (AA affiliate of the Chicago White Sox), and Mississippi (AA affiliate of the Atlanta Braves).
Enjoy the experience from the press box, camera pits, and dugouts learning more about the players (as a few did get promoted to the big leagues during the season), teams, and game-play. Add to it the experience of the Negro Leagues Museum (in Birmingham, AL) along with learning more from a hidden part of the game, the umpires, as you take in 7 games in 8 weeks across the Carolinas, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, and "the 'Sip" with the author.
And that is nothing Minor..

Описание: Essays, conversations, and artist portfolios confront questions at the intersection of race, institutional life, and representation.
Controversies involving race and the art world are often discussed in terms of diversity and representation--as if having the right representative from a group or a larger plurality of embodied difference would absolve art institutions from historic forms of exclusion. This book offers another approach, taking into account not only questions of racial representation but also issues of structural change and the redistribution of resources. In essays, conversations, discussions, and artist portfolios, contributors confront in new ways questions at the intersection of art, race, and representation.
The book uses saturation as an organizing concept, in part to suggest that current paradigms cannot encompass the complex realities of race. Saturation provides avenues to situate race as it relates to perception, science, aesthetics, the corporeal, and the sonic. In color theory, saturation is understood in terms of the degree to which a color differs from whiteness. In science, saturation points describe not only the moment in which race exceeds legibility, but also how diversity operates for institutions. Contributors consider how racialization, globalization, and the production and consumption of art converge in the art market, engaging such topics as racial capitalism, the aesthetics of colonialism, and disability cultures. They examine methods for theorizing race and representation, including "aboutness," which interprets artworks by racialized subjects as being "about" race; modes of unruly, decolonized, and queer visual practices that resist disciplinary boundaries; and a model by which to think with and alongside blackness and indigeneity.
