A Video Essay by Keith Piper looking at issues of sport, race and national belonging. Looking at Cricket in the mid 1970s and early 1980s, and Athletics in the 1990s, Piper conjures with ideas raised by historian CLR James and cultural theorist Professor Stuart Hall to examine shifting notions of identify and identification.

This video essay was produced for the panel discussion ‘Thinking with Stuart Hall: Critical Dialogues on Art and Culture’ curated by Layal Ftouni at the Beirut Art Centre, March 2015.
