Since the day she became the principal owner of the Cincinnati Reds, Marge Schott has been a woman surrounded by controversy. Allegations of her racist and anti-Semitic remarks made front-page headlines across the country. Mike Bass, the winner of the Associated Press Sports Editors Award for his series of articles on racism in sports, looks at the woman behind the Reds. This book corroborates the general perception of Schott as a boorish liar, employee-basher, and cheapskate. In short, she fits in with a long line of similar baseball owners like George Steinbrenner and Charley Finley. Schott is also accused of having an alcohol problem, but again, that's not unusual in the world of baseball. The meat of the story and the reason for her suspension is her well-established propensity for racial and ethnic slurs (even extending to her own employees), and her supposed discriminatory hiring practices, a charge that is harder to prove. Bass, a longtime Cincinnati sportswriter, employs a breathless, journalistic style in detailing Schott's background. Of interest for its topical look at racism in sports. More

Large-scale immigration has always been part of the American experience, viewed as both an opportunity for immigrants and as a benefit to the nation. But Americans can also be ambivalent about immigration as it affects jobs. A period of large-scale immigration began in the early 1970s and culminated in passage of the 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA). This report provides the context within which the effects of IRCA — whose provisions included changes in employment, agricultural labor, civil rights, and federal reimbursement policies and programs — can be evaluated.
