SEASIDE — Join the Seaside Public Library 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 9, when local author and historian Gloria Linkey teaches how to research history and unlock the past. The event, sponsored by the Friends of the Seaside Library, will take place in the Community Room. “Research is one of the most important aspects of writing any type of book,” the library wrote. “Whether your story is set in the court of Henry VIII or the trenches of the Somme, historical writers need research to explore a subject and fully explain it to their readers.” Linkey will describe how she accesses historical information, extracts intriguing human stories, and transforms it all into compelling books. She will offer a window into the writer’s process that will fascinate and educate. Interested in how one local author works her magic to produce absorbing historical fiction and nonfiction? This event is for you. Resources that Linkey has found invaluable are an excellent library, a first-rate museum and an exceptional bookstore. “Seaside is fortunate to have all three,” she said, “with staff ready to assist you.” Linkey is past president of the Seaside Museum & Historical Society, and a member of the Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation. She is the author of “Native American Women: Three Who Changed History,” “Abby Rescues Animals” and “A Town Called Seaside.” The library is located at 1131 Broadway St. For more information, call 503-738-6742, or visit seasidelibrary.org.

‘To me, this house is a person’ For one home on the Cannon Beach Cottage Tour, the woman who lived there makes it special By BRENNA VISSER COAST WEEKEND

hen Kelly Giampa bought her house in Cannon Beach 15 years ago, she didn’t expect the previous homeowner to come with it. Giampa wasn’t keen on Cannon Beach at first because of its “tourist feel,” but after seeing “charming photos” of the inside, she decided to give it a chance. And when she and her husband came for the showing, there was an unexpected bonus: meeting the seller of the home, Lannie Hurst, a Portland theater icon and activist. On the outside, the house looked terrible, Giampa recalled. “We almost didn’t want to go in,” she said. “But when we walked in, Lannie greeted us in the kitchen, which was unusual because usually the seller isn’t there.”

They immediately connected and soon bonded over their shared love of Broadway, music and shared roots in Portland. In the transition, Hurst quickly became family to the Giampas. “We told her to keep a key to the house,” Giampa said. “It was our house.” The home is one of several featured in this year’s Cannon Beach Cottage & Garden Tour happening Friday through Sunday, Sept. 8 through 10. On top of enjoying live concerts and luncheons, people tour homes with creative architecture, scenic landscaping and historical significance. Built in the 1950s, Giampa’s home is no exception to these features, especially after the many years she has spent gradually renovating the outside of the beachfront home.

IF YOU GO

But to Giampa, what makes her home special is the friendship that formed there before Hurst’s death in 2010. That’s what she hopes to share with more than 500 people who signed up for this year’s tour. “To me, this house is a person. That’s how it’s always been. Every time I’ve walked in here the past 15 years, it feels like I’m getting a hug,” she said. “It feels like Lannie.”

Preserving history

Each year, the Cannon Beach Museum and History Center selects a region of town to highlight historical and aesthetically beautiful houses for people to tour. This is the first year the north end of Cannon Beach has been featured, museum Executive Director Elaine Trucke said, including homes on Chapman Point and the Elk Creek Lodge, Cannon Beach’s oldest hotel. “For years, we had issues having a tour in the north part of town because it is highly populated, and mostly full of yearround residences,” Trucke said. “When it is their permanent residence, it’s harder for them to open their home up.” Trucke and Liz Johnson, the museum’s outreach coordinator, start surveying homes 11 months in advance. Johnson noticed Giampa’s home for its cute cottage-like exterior and, with the permission of the Cottage Tours committee, decided to invite Giampa to be on the tour. Johnson started doing research on the home, which is when she found that Hurst — locally famous for starting a rally to save Portland’s oldest church from demolition in 1967 — bought the home in the 1990s. The interior reflects years Hurst spent meticulously designing every corner of the house, including a bathroom lined with personalized tiles that recognize her travels and shows in which she performed. “She was really about preserving history, and it was clear she was trying to save that house,” Johnson said. The interior itself is intriguing on its own, Johnson said, but learning of the connection between Giampa and Hurst added another layer of interest. “I think people will relate to the connection,” Johnson said. “There is something very emotional about it.”

Memories

Since purchasing the house, Giampa and her husband spent years updating the exterior of the house and breathing life into an expansive garden to match what Hurst had already started inside. “We wanted to finish what she started,”

A photo taken at the 2012 garden tour The interior of Lannie Hurst’s Cannon Beach home, featured on the Cottage & Garden Tour. Hurst died in 2010.

Giampa said. “She made this home so authentic and welcoming, we wanted to make sure the whole house was worthy of the person who touched our lives.” Even after Hurst moved back to Portland full time in 2002, she would get calls from Hurst asking if she could pop in. Hurst would come over to have dinner with Giampa’s family, and in Portland the two made a habit of going to the theater together. When they were in bloom, Giampa would make sure to bring Hurst a bouquet of the cow lilies that grew in their shared yard. “I remember when Lannie came over to dinner once, and I put on the soundtrack to ‘My Fair Lady,’ one of my favorite

musicals,” Giampa said. “We sat side by side on the sofa singing along. And you know how usually when you’re with your friends you stop after a few lines? Well we kept singing the whole soundtrack to the end.” After Hurst died, Giampa and her family decided to buy a different home in the Presidential Streets that fit their needs better, she said. But Giampa couldn’t bring herself to sell their northend house without feeling like losing Hurst. As a compromise, she has turned the home into a long-term rental. “I couldn’t imagine people funneling in and out like a vacation rental,” Giampa said.

Opening up

Though some furniture has been swapped out over the years, a photo of Hurst, sitting atop a hutch in the kitchen, still stands watch over the home. The current renters, too, have embraced Hurst’s presence, without ever meeting her, by celebrating her birthday each year, Giampa said. Now Giampa’s excited to share what this house means to her with more people on the tour. “When I look back on how this played out, I wonder if we ever would have committed to this house if she wasn’t there,” Giampa said. “It’s not often you make a connection like this with a stranger. I hope sharing my story will help inspire people to take the risk and being willing to open up to people. Like Lannie.” CW

Best market meals embrace coastal smorgasbord Review and photos by THE MOUTH OF THE COLUMBIA

IF YOU GO

MOUTH@COASTWEEKEND.COM

FACEBOOK.COM/MOUTHOFTHECOLUMBIA

ast week’s column highlighted farmers market purveyors. This week we turn to the food courts. There’s one at a each market. (For times and locations, see the sidebar.) The best market meals take advantage of the smorgasbord of freshness that surrounds them. Indeed, it’s a special thing to see the vendors, the farmers, the ranchers, and have a dish prepared from the bounty. No one is doing this better than Roll & Bowl, a sushi and ramen cart you’ll find at the Manzanita, Cannon Beach and Seaside markets. When Roll & Bowl appeared on the circuit last year I marveled at the veggies, for I’d never had sushi with such vibrant ruffage. (They get the lion’s share of their produce from KingFisher Farms.) In year No. 2, Roll & Bowl have upped their game considerably. The improvements began with a new trailer, increasing both capacity and efficiency. The menu has grown, and so has the team. Sushi chef Bryan Tiller added a ramen specialist: Brae Bartlett. Starting with scratch-made noodles, Bartlett builds beautiful, teeming, artfully arranged bowls. The offerings evolve week to week, shaped by inspiration and availability. You’re likely to find a “tonkotsu,” a pork-based broth, and a vegetarian option, which of late has been a marvelous Green Curry ($11). With marinated tofu, mushrooms — both pickled shiitake and the long, thin-stemmed enoki — sesame-marinated bamboo chutes, green onions and other elements, the vegetarian bowl’s broth has a depth of flavor that’s nearly bottomless. (It includes miso, green onion, garlic, shio koji curry paste and more.) The Tonkotsu ($12),

with luscious slabs of pork belly and a similar smattering of mushrooms and veg, is equally divine. Each bowl comes with a sous-vide egg whose viscous yolk unwinds in slurpy ecstasy. (For $2 more you can upgrade to an even-richer duck egg from a flock raised by Tiller himself.) Then there are rice bowls, which make lean little lunches. Atop perfect white rice is that shifting array of mushrooms, veggies and herbs. They’re topped with, say, juicy slices of seared flank steak, marinated in Korean chili paste, fish sauce and soy. Or grilled salmon skewers. Or seared pork belly and tangy kimchi. Again, it changes week to week. Tiller’s sushi has evolved, too. The most obvious difference is structural: hand rolls (cone-shaped with a dried seaweed wrapper) have replaced rolls (sliced bites with rice on the outside). For $6 each, or two for $10, Tiller offers a few choices. The stalwart Phillystyle includes smoked salmon and cream cheese. The Veggie packs spicy arugula, goat cheese, sweet potato and beets. And, from time to time, you’ll find raw fish. The Albacore Lox, with burdock, carrots, cucumber, arugula and an edible flower, was tangy, buttery and irresistible. Together, Tiller and Bartlett’s dishes exhibit a studiousness and refinement that comes only through apprentice and passion. Theirs is food every bit as good as — and, in many cases, better than — the

brick-and-mortar restaurants in the region. Alongside Roll & Bowl’s green trailer at the Cannon Beach and Manzanita farmers markets you’ll find CS Fishery, grilling up rockfish on a big round flat-top. The catch comes from a collective of fisherman in the Garibaldi area who’re committed to sustainable practices. CSF’s flagship is the Rockfish Taco ($10 for two). On 8-inch flour tortillas, they’re not quite streetstyle. The flaky white rockfish is grilled, not fried, topped with slaw, a drizzle of spicy mayo and salsa. It’s reasonably clean and simple. Atop the grill you’ll also see a pile of sizzling veggies — mostly onions, cabbage and chard (again from KingFisher). While some veggies may make their way into tacos, most are reserved for the Rockfish Bowl ($12). It’s kind of like an unassembled fish taco, tortilla included. The veggies in the bowl were dominated by long-cooked, caramelized onions. Adding some sharp and sweet to the veg — like, say, bell and spicy peppers — or some body — potatoes, for instance — would punch the bowl up significantly. In Manzanita, CSF offers hamburgers, too, with beef from their neighboring Nehalem River Ranch. The burger ($10, served with chips) is stout, thick and generous. Though it could be more astutely seasoned, the beef has a cleanliness and — how do I put it? — a local flavor signature. (Or maybe I’m just not getting enough well-raised,

grass-finished beef?) It’s heartening to close that distance — to know where your food comes from, not to mention knowing your purchases are supporting the local economy. Though it’s the largest by far, you won’t find as much preparation of market goods at Astoria food court. To me, it feels as much like carnival fare as it does farmers market. Some of Astoria’s food court vendors are extensions of brick-and-mortar businesses, and I couldn’t resist Himani Indian Cuisine’s pop-up. I just don’t get enough Indian food on the coast, and the combo ($13) scratched that itch with smooth, buttery chicken, silky eggplant curry and the singular seasoning of a tandoori chicken. I’d heard good things about Rawk Star Creations, a vegan vendor from Olympia, Washington, but was a bit deflated that the Sage Garden Burger ($8) was pre-made and packaged, simply pulled from a cooler. The grainy, nutty patty, between raw, grainy, onion bread was like a car crash of protein bars. The cashew “cheese” was hummus-like, and the veg was solid. But don’t get me wrong: My body was thankful for this raw, natural, healthy sandwich. Were my diet thusly restricted, I’d be quite thankful for such a robust, on-the-go snack. It would be another vendor from Olympia, though, that would be the star of my Astoria market: Claddagh Coldbrew Co. As I drink my coffee black, I had no use for the nitro (which emulates creaminess without

41 years in real estate, the last 13 working for ReMax. Walsh retired three years ago and relocated to Seaview. More than 25 years ago, he and Madeline took a trip to the Long Beach Peninsula that would change their lives. “We love the beach, so we took a trip to the peninsula,” Walsh said, “but it just so happened to be a holiday weekend, and we couldn’t

find a hotel room anywhere. We looked on the Oregon side, down in Ocean Park and almost to Lincoln City. I told my wife, ‘I’m not coming back down here until we have a place of our own.’” Madeline joked: “Our only requirement is that we wanted something better than a tent.” The Walshes purchased a property and spent the next three decades slowly fixing it up during their free time

while still living in Vancouver. Now it’s their full-time home. “It’s not a big house, but it’s cute,” Walsh said. “We have a white picket fence all around it, and a pink seagull in the front yard — a character from one of my books called ‘In Search of the Pink Seagull.’” “The Little Spotted Frog” can be found online through Amazon and at Adelaide’s Books.

of everyday life, dies at age 92 By FRAZIER MOORE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — Comedian Shelley Berman, who won gold records and appeared on top television shows in the 1950s and 1960s delivering wry monologues about the annoyances of everyday life, has died. He was 92. Berman died Friday at his home in Bell Canyon, California, from complications from Alzheimer’s disease, according to spokesman Glenn Schwartz. Berman was a pioneer of a new brand of comedy that could evoke laughter from such matters as air travel discomforts and small children who answer the telephone. He helped pave the way for Bob Newhart, Woody Allen, Jerry Seinfeld and other stand-up comedians who fashioned their routines around the follies and frustrations of modern living. Tributes came in Friday from Steve Martin, who tweeted that Berman “changed modern stand-up,” and Richard Lewis, who said there was “no better wordsmith.” Late in his career, he played Nat David, father of Larry David, on HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” With dialogue improvised by its cast, the comedy series gave Berman the opportunity to return to his improv roots and introduced him to a new generation of TV viewers. “I’m not a stand-up comedian,” Berman often insisted. “I work on a stool.” Comedy was not a childhood ambition for him. He trained as an actor, with the Goodman School of Drama in his native Chicago and with the prestigious ac-

tress-teacher Uta Hagen in New York. “I had dreams of being an actor,” he said in a 1960 interview. “For 10 years I tried, picking up small jobs in summer stock and TV. I had a hard time of it.” As a last resort, he put together a 20-minute routine and auditioned at the Chicago nightclub Mister Kelly’s. He was given a job, and then he had to scramble to write more material for a half-hour show. “I was always one of those life-of-the-party boys,” he admitted, “though I never stooped to wearing women’s hats or lampshades. I was always making people laugh, in school and later in life.” Berman’s success in Chicago led to a booking in Las Vegas. He bombed. The gamblers didn’t laugh nor did they talk. Accustomed to slam-bang comics out of vaudeville and burlesque, they listened in amazement to the guy sitting on a stool and using big words with a routine that often consisted of one side of a make-believe phone call.

He continued on the saloon circuit, honing his craft and deciding on which direction to go. He didn’t fit any category. He wasn’t a joke teller nor a “sick” comedian. He figured he was a “humanist humorist.” Berman made the first of many appearances on “The Ed Sullivan Show” in 1959. That year he issued his first album, “Inside Shelley Berman.” It won a gold record and received the first-ever Grammy Award for the spoken word. Two more albums achieved gold status. Along with his busy schedule in nightclubs and auditoriums, he fulfilled his first ambition to be an actor. He appeared in a Broadway play, “The Boys Against the Girls,” in 1959 and a musical, “A Family Affair,” in 1962. His film debut came in 1964 with the adaptation of Gore Vidal’s hit political stage drama “The Best Man,” starring Henry Fonda and Cliff Robertson. “Not only an accomplished comedian, actor, and author, Shelley was among the new breed of comedians who made a significant

impact through recordings,” said The Recording Academy in a statement. “Shelley will be deeply missed, but the influence he exerted on our creative community will remain forever.” Berman’s comedy career stalled in 1963. He was performing his act before an audience for a documentary-style NBC show, “Comedian Backstage,” when a telephone ringing interrupted him; it was the second night it happened. He stormed backstage and ranted at everyone in sight. His outburst, edited to make him appear temperamental, was included in the telecast. “Once you’re known as being difficult, it becomes too hard to deal with management and even fellow artists,” he remarked in 1986. The bookings fell off, and Berman returned to acting, with little luck. He and his wife, Sarah, were forced to file for bankruptcy, and he began a long struggle to pay off his taxes and creditors. He found work in television series such as “The Twilight Zone,” ‘’Rawhide” and “Peter Gunn” and occasional movies including “Divorce American Style.” He became active in regional theater and also worked his old routines before college and lecture audiences. For more than 20 years he taught comedy at the University of Southern California. In recent years, he landed guest roles on series including “The King of Queens,” ‘’Boston Legal” and “CSI: NY,” and appeared in the film “Meet the Fockers.” He retired from performing in 2014 after being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.

Jack Allen, a master painter and puzzle maker from Tigard, will teach a workshop 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 9, for Astoria’s Art Walk. Allen comes from an advertising background where his specialty was photography. He began his painting career in acrylic, and a workshop with the well-known Frank Webb

led him to watercolor. Allen’s approach to composition and design is geometric, with very precise vertical, horizontal and perpendicular lines and angles of careful proportions. He calls this approach “isometric.” Allen’s paintings make excellent jigsaw puzzles. Allen’s paintings and jigsaw puzzles will be on exhibit at the Art Loft through Tuesday, Sept. 19.

‘First an amateur’

Ralph Waldo Emerson said that every artist was first an amateur, and Diana Poorman understands the wisdom of that statement. Poorman, a painter of landscapes and seascapes, will teach her workshop 1 to 4 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 9. Coming to the art field as an adult, she started with painting and later earned a graphic arts degree and worked in the corporate world as a graphic designer and art director. In the early 1990s, Poorman discovered watercolor, which became her main medium, though she occasionally drifted into pastel and acrylic.

The doors will open at 6:30 p.m. This is the friends group’s main fundraiser of the year; all funds are directed to the maintenance and operation of the River Life Interpretive Center/ Central School/Redmen Hall. The event draws visitors from throughout the Pacific Northwest. There will be fine wines to sample with a delectable menu prepared by Don and Kitty Speranza.

n late August, I stopped by the immense and ornate bar central to Carruthers Restaurant, as they were celebrating their oneyear anniversary of bringing great food, great drink and great service to downtown Astoria. In a year’s time Carruthers had plowed through many seasonal changes to its menu and the activity behind the bar has been no less adventurous. It was exactly a year ago that I featured the Bulleit-based Rye Witch, one of Carruthers’ first signature cocktails. Since then, David Licitra has taken over the bar menu from Laura Cherau, but the mixology shows no signs of becoming complacent anytime soon. The Sunshower, a recent drink special, combines the heavy sweetness of dark rum with the effervescent, warm tartness of a mango/ chile/finger lime shrub. Shrubs have been all the rage lately, having appeared at the Harding Trading Co. in Cannon Beach as well as at the Seaside and Astoria outposts of Pilot House Distilling through their sis-

ter company Grumpy Dog Shrubs. Shrubs are old-fashioned drinking vinegars which, according to the knowledgeable website Serious Eats, were popular in Colonial America as a way to preserve fruit. Shrubs usually combine fruit, vinegar, sugar, as well as herbs and spices, and tend to pack a punch that is both puckering and sweet. The rediscovery of these syrups seems like the natural next-step evolution for any bar that prides itself on its infused spirits. While most shrubs are non-alcoholic, they are often right at

restaurants, breweries, farmers markets and much more. Auctioneer Brian McClain presides over the open auction with his friendly, fast-paced style. Nonalcoholic beverages will also be available. “Here is your opportunity to help keep this beautiful building standing tall,” organizers wrote in a release. Advance tickets are $15 each, or two for $25, and can be purchased at Daisy Chain Floral in Cathlamet, the Skamokawa General Store and at the River Life Interpretive Center/Central School/Redmen Hall 1x2EOMediaFiller - Page 1 - Composite in Skamokawa. Tickets sold at the door will be $20 each, or two for $30.

home in a cocktail. The Sunshower essentially takes its general form from the Mojito, though here the muddled herb is basil instead of mint. The salt and pepper on the rim calms down the aggressive bite of the vinegar. This is one last splash of summer in September before the skies draw dark again.

Sunshower

1 1/2 ounces dark rum 1 ounce Mango/Chile/Finger Lime Shrub* 1 ounce fresh lime juice Fresh basil Salt and pepper Ice Wipe the lip of a cocktail glass with a slice of lime and dust the rim in salt and pepper. In the bottom of a cocktail shaker, muddle the basil with ice. Add the rum, lime juice and shrub, mix and pour into the rimmed glass. *There are many resources online that will help you begin brewing

and stewing your own shrubs. Some general guidance offered by David Licitra of Carruthers is to begin with equal parts fruit, vinegar and sugar and heat the mixture to just below a boil—about 190 degrees. The infusion can then be left to marinate in the fridge for between three and 30 days before being strained and is ready to use. Licitra also noted that the discarded fruit is excellent for using in chutneys. This particular shrub combined mangos, serrano and jalapeño peppers and finger limes, which are an odd Aussie citrus that forms little pearls that look like caviar as opposed to the petals of the regular supermarket-varietal limes. Regular limes would make a fine substitution. If you are not up for waiting a week or month before trying your drinking vinegar, Grumpy Dog’s new Mandarin Habanero Shrub would make an interesting contribution to the mix. —Recipe and advice courtesy of David Licitra, bar manager, Carruthers Restaurant, Astoria, Oregon CW

Wheels and Waves kicks into gear Seaside car show runs Sept. 7-10 By KATHERINE LACAZE FOR COAST WEEKEND

s summer draws to a close, Seaside will once again provide the backdrop for a gathering of vintage car enthusiasts who enjoy a little sand and surf with their hot rods and convertibles. Scheduled in September, part of the “shoulder season,” the Seaside Downtown Development Association’s annual Wheels and Waves car show prompts visitors and locals to visit downtown and celebrate show-quality cars manufactured in 1965 or earlier. “It’s hard to think of it as being in the off-season, because it’s so busy now that everybody thinks it’s still

summer — but it wouldn’t (be busy) without the car show,” said Keith Chandler, chair of

SDDA’s Car Show Committee. This year’s Wheels and Waves is scheduled for Thursday through Sunday, Sept. 7 through 10, and will feature all the traditional festivities: the Coastline Poker Run, Thursday afternoon’s Senior Cruise to Seaside’s three retirement facilities, and the Downtown Cruise. However, the development association is constantly looking to add new features, and this year is no different, said Sarah Dailey, the organization’s executive director. For families with young children, the event will include a Kid Zone in Sponsor Alley, set up on North Edgewood Street from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Friday and Saturday. The organization was given a van that’s been painted matte black and primed for children to decorate with chalk art throughout the event. The Kid Zone will offer drawing sheets as well.

Slow drag demo

Organizers are especially looking forward to what’s coming Sunday morning: a trial run of slow drag racing. The demonstration will take place at 10 a.m. Sunday along Edgewood and Oceanway streets, behind the Seaside Civic & Convention Center. In short, slow drag racing involves drivers — two cars at a time — revving their engines, accelerating for a set distance, and then coasting to

get the front wheels and axle over the finish line, without going too far. The catch is they must slow down without using brakes. Various ways to accomplish that feat include opening the vehicle’s doors; sticking umbrellas or blankets out the window; or whatever other creative ideas racers can generate. This year, SDDA is hoping to recruit 10 to 12 car owners during registration who are willing to take part in the demonstration. By next year, the organization plans to establish a specific set of rules regarding the slow drag, as it will be a competitive event anyone can enter, Dailey said. She added that, in general, they want to expand the offerings Sunday mornings to energize the crowd and increase the value of staying in Seaside the extra Saturday night. “We’re trying to add more interesting things for both the car participants and for the spectators,” she said.

Detailing the event

During Wheels and Waves, Broadway, from Holladay

Drive to the Turnaround, and portions of connecting streets will be closed to general motor vehicle traffic until after the Downtown Cruise, which takes place from 5 to 5:45 p.m. Saturday. The public can view cars for free during the Show & Shine, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday. Live music will be provided by The King Brothers, a band from Kelso, Washington, that plays rock n’ roll oldies from the ’50s through ’70s. They will perform on the street outside Dundee’s Bar & Grill. The organizers feel several various components create the car show people have come to know and love. “You got the setting in downtown, which is fantastic; you got some spectacular cars; and what I like is listening to the crowd,” Chandler said, adding, “There is a lot of reminiscing going on … It’s just a fun time, a friendly atmosphere, and at a very reasonable price.” CW

How privilege works — on and off the field

quantitative proof of the racial stereotyping that underpins sports culture. This book reveals the way white privilege operates by focusing on the cheating and sometimes criminal misbehaviors of white-skinned star athletes such as Tom Brady, Ryan Lochte, Hope Solo, Lance Armstrong and others. These case studies are not comprehensive, but they do suggest at the very least an ingrained and habitual extension of leniency that is denied to those with darker skin. Leonard sometimes regurgitates the same observations from one chapter to the next. His writing style is a fast-paced salmagundi of academic jargon, “isms” (racism, sexism, exceptionalism, consumerism), and hash tags (#PlayingWhileWhite, #FanWhileWhite, #OwningWhileWhite, #DroptheSlur, and many, many more). A sharper-eyed copyeditor might have assisted overall reading comprehension with closer attention to use of commas and the reining in of run-on sentences.

But putting those criticisms aside — in the aftermath of Charlottesville, this is still a worthwhile read. For white people who don’t understand what all the fuss is about, “Playing While White” irrefutably shows how racial inequity is practiced and even promoted in America’s sports culture. Perhaps by considering these issues through the lens of sports — which is, after all, “re-creation” — we might become better attuned to recognizing the institutionalized racism that still pervades our society.
