Indiana University sport sociologist Gary Sailes joins us to discuss his new anthology "Modern Sport and the African-American Experience", containing nineteen essays about biases and trends associated with black athletes and other topics related to how sport and African-American culture intertwine. Also in this program: on a new edition of "Compound Interest", financial correspondent Kevin Osborne explains what to do if you suspect you've been a victim of identity theft and the importance of monitoring your credit report. Our featured musical artist is up-and-coming bluesman Kirk Fletcher, who got an early break as a backing musician for the Fabulous Thunderbirds and now is ready to take center stage with the new album “My Turn”. As always, Bring It On! features regional and national news and a regional calendar highlighting events relevant to the local African-American community. Hosted by Cornelius Wright and Ken McNeil.
