⚽️ talk! Enrico Castro Montes on visual representation of national identity via football Indigenous players. And interesting history from the margins. #ISHPES2022

Russell Field discussing the visual representation of sport through comics/graphic novels/BD/tableaux... Proposes the field should consider them as source and, even more, as a dissemination tool. Cc The 1934 Chatham Coloured All-Stars Project :) #ISHPES2022

John Hellström on visual media representation of national sport heroes. Essentially asking, if a heroic achievement happens and the media is not there to document, broadcast, and interpret it as heroic, did it really happen? #ISHPES2022

Annette Hoffman speaking about the Turnverein in Namibia and about the vestiges of German colonization there today. Fascinating. In an alternate universe where the Belgians didn't move into Africa post-WWI, me and my family learn German instead of French. #ISHPES2022

#ishpes2022 kicked off also personally. Nice to hear so many questions and interest in early development of Finnish culture of 'bench sports'/sports fandom.
