Das Sportmuseum Berlin bloggt (wie wir) auf @dehypotheses.
Die Leiterin Veronika Springmann hat kürzlich einen Beitrag über das Sportmuseum und die Sportgeschichte veröffentlicht, bei dem sie auch #MajorTaylor kurz erwähnt.

Wir bereiten ein Buch- und Forschungsprojekt über "Major Taylor in Deutschland" vor. Es fehlt eigentlich "nur" noch die finanzielle Förderung. Wir halten Euch auf dem Laufenden.

Cycling Weekly, February 7, 2023

Almost 100 years after Major Taylor self-published his autobiography "The Fastest Bicycle Rider in the World" (1928/29) it was reissued by Belt Publishing recently. An important document of international and Black sports history.

Soeben erschienen: mein Artikel über MAJOR TAYLOR, den Schwarzen US-amerikanischen Weltmeister und Profi. Ich untersuche seine Auftritte in Deutschland zwischen 1901 und 1903, die mediale Inszenierung und die Reaktionen zwischen Begeisterung und Rassismus.

Good news: My paper on Major Taylor, the black US champion cyclist, and his track races in Germany (1901-1903) was accepted by peer-reviewed journal STADION and will be published very soon.

By the way, that guy on the photo is #MajorTaylor (real name: Marshall Walter Biggs Taylor). Born in 1878 and deceased in 1932, Major Taylor was the first black pro rider in US #cycling. And boy, he was a successful and powerful sprinter, getting the nickname «Black Cyclone».
I wholeheartedly welcome all initiatives to make cycling more diverse and lower the barriers for folks from developing countries to compete at the highest levels.
