Anti-racism industrial complex in sport
This conceptual paper extends Anti-Racism Industrial Complex (ARIC) to U.S. corporate sport, exploring the intricate relationship between racial capitalism and political economy of race. We show how sport organizations employ anti-racism discourses for corporate profitability rather than genuine commitments to social justice, with the ARIC underpinning this strategic commodification. Using conjunctive cultural critique as a method, we examine the…
Ungrateful Immigrant Vs. American Dream
This study examines U.S. media discourses surrounding two Asian American athletes, Chloe Kim and Eileen Gu, whose similar developmental trajectories yet divergent nationality decisions at the Olympics illuminate how race, ethnicity, nationality, and belonging are constructed and contested. Using Critical Discourse Analysis, we draw on the established–outsider model and Asian Critical Race Theory (AsianCrit) to analyze how media framed Chloe as an…
Asian Racialization Through Parenting in Youth Ice Hockey
This ethnography examines the cultural meanings of sport, focusing on how Asian Americans learn, contest, and negotiate their racialization. Using the ethnographic study of a Korean immigrant family living in the Midwestern United States, this paper theorizes the socially underrepresented contours of Asian racialization in sport. It explores how U.S. youth ice hockey culture reinforces and essentializes whiteness and how Korean Americans subtly n…

I trace three historical conjunctures to build a connection between the collective history and my self-reflec…
Branded Media Representations of Coach Sarah Murray
This study offers a critical discourse analysis of media representations of coach Sarah Murray, the first foreign, the first female, and the youngest head coach of the South Korean women's national ice hockey team at the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics. We focus on the South Korean media, which framed and manipulated coach Murray's credibility, especially the caliber of her coaching, while constructing a familial tie and restating the global hierarchy …
Taegeuk Warriors with Blue Eyes
This study examines media discourses of the naturalized athletes of the South Korean men’s national ice hockey team. Building on the conceptual frameworks of imagined community, ethnic nationalism, and previous studies on athlete migration and naturalization, we further an understanding of the process of deconstruction and reconstruction of South Korean ethnic and national identity. We use Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis to explore how S…
Ice Dancing to Arirang in the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games

The auth…
