"Dr. Jonathan Howe's book offers a critical examination of the self-presentation strategies employed by Black male college athletes as they navigate the complex social environments of Division I sports. Through in-depth interviews and innovative data collection methods, Howe uncovers the dynamic interplay between identity, external perceptions, and the broader collegiate context, providing an innovative framework for understanding how these athletes manage their identities within athletic and academic settings."
