Book description
Como miembro de los Chicago Bulls campeones de la NBA en 1991, un Hodges vestido de dashiki entregaba una carta escrita a mano al presidente George H. W. Bush exigiéndole que hiciera más para abordar el racismo y la desigualdad económica. Hodges también fue activista y portavoz sindical, impulsó un boicot contra Nike y denunció enérgicamente la brutalidad policial a raíz de las imágenes de la paliza a Rodney King que dieron la vuelta al mundo. Pero su franqueza le salió cara: en el mejor momento de su carrera, tras diez temporadas en la NBA, fue excluido de la competición por usar su condición de atleta profesional para defender causas justas.En estas poderosas, apasionadas y cautivadoras memorias, el dos veces campeón de la NBA y triplista insuperable comparte las experiencias de toda una vida dedicada a mejorar las condiciones de la comunidad negra en Estados Unidos: desde los encuentros con otros destacados activistas negros como Nelson Mandela, Coretta Scott King o Jim Brown, hasta su relación con figuras como Michael Jordan y George Bush padre. Una cosa está clara: Craig Hodges nunca se ha acobardado a la hora de cantar las verdades al poder.
