大会趣旨
On 26 Dec 1908 in Sydney, Australia, the African-American boxer Jack Johnson (USA) defeated the white title holder Tommy Burns (Canada), claiming the world heavy-weight championship and effectively breaking the ?colour bar in American boxing. One hundred years later, in the same city where this momentous event took place, delegates are invited to discuss ways in which notions of race and ethnicity have shaped world sport, and continue to do so. These areas of focus are conceived broadly, and may thus encompass interrelated themes such as indigeneity and cultural and linguistic diversity. Attendees from every part of the globe and any social background will be made equally welcome.
