Description

Through My Eyes points out certain issues in sports from a minority perspective, addresses the chess analogy of the industry, and the need for diversity. Are minority-athletes just pawns in sports? They're the ones in the battles, but are treated like underclass-citizens after completing their athletic careers for their institutions. Opportunity is the master key for unlocking doors for diversity. It's time for a change. "It's not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could've done better. The credit belongs to the man whose actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust, sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs; comes up short again and again, because there's no effort without error or shortcoming"..."who, at the best knows in the end the triumph of high-achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."-Theodore Roosevelt
