Three programmes on the sporting scene in Britain 3: Sport and the Black Community
Why do some sports attract black sportsmen while others remain the preserve of the whites? Many black youngsters see sport as a route to personal and financial success, but does it remain a source of hope and ambition only as long as inequality remains? Do attitudes to black athletes reflect society's view of black people as a whole? Caryl Phillips examines the black community's participation in British sport.
