Show Notes

If you want to understand America, going to a college football game is a great place to start. In a lot of ways, the culture and history of the sport is a mirror held up to the country itself. But some folks -- especially Asian Americans -- haven’t seen themselves in that reflection until recently. Or so we thought. Because an incredible discovery in North Carolina is rewriting history and changing what we thought was possible in sports.

Featuring:

  • Shehan Jeyarajah, national college football writer for CBS Sports
  • Tim Peeler, North Carolina State University sports historian
