Are African American children purposely being denied basic access to sports competitions so that they can't develop the skills to win? It would seem that way. When funding was cut from the program that supported 20 elementary school football teams, that took away the chance for young players to get valuable experience they could take with them into high school athletics. Coach Ernest Radcliff, head of 50 Coaches and Leaders, discusses why he kept his elementary football program going despite budget cuts, and how he developed the Wolfpack, 7th and 8th graders, from Chicago's South Side, into a winning team that is now headed for the National Championship tournaments in Dallas, Texas. How do we overcome the deliberate attempts to suppress the athletic talents of our children? How do we overcome racial discrimination in sports programs and keep winning ANYWAY?
