Tracie Canada

Tracie Canada is the Andrew W. Mellon Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology and Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies at Duke University. She is also the founder and director of the Health, Ethnography, and Race through Sports, or HEARTS, Lab. As a Black feminist anthropologist and ethnographer, her work uses sport, specifically American football and the lived experiences of Black players, to theorize race, kinship, care, and gender. In addition to her academic publications, her work has been featured in public venues and outlets like The Museum of Modern Art, The Guardian, and Scientific American.

Canada is the author of TACKLING THE EVERYDAY: Race and Nation in Big-Time College Football. One of the first ethnographies about Black college football players, she reveals the ways young athletes strategically resist the exploitative systems that structure their everyday lives, focusing on how the brotherhood among Black players operates alongside their caring mothers.
