I Gotta Represent My Community: Latino Male Faculty, Sports, and the Politics of the “Game”
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article examines the role of sport as it pertains to Latino male faculty. Specifically, we offer a contribution to the dearth of scholarship at the intersections of sport and how Latino male faculty make sense of their identities and academic journeys. The use of sport as a reference for understanding Latinx faculty identity is for the most part non-existent within education research that is focused on Latino males. Drawing from this context, we offer this piece as a means by which to examine sport with links to family, community, faculty navigation and resistance skills.
