He distinguished himself as a defensive catcher who also had an impressive batting average and later worked as a manager of the Newark Eagles and the Baltimore Elite Giants. Using archival materials and interviews with former Negro League players, baseball historian Rich Westcott chronicles the catcher's life and remarkable career in Biz Mackey, a Giant behind the Plateas well as providing an in-depth look at Philadelphia Negro League history. Westcott traces Mackey's childhood in Texas as the son of sharecroppers to his success on the baseball diamond where he displayed extraordinary defensive skills and an exceptional ability to hit and to handle pitchers. Mackey spent one third of his career playing in Philadelphia, winning championships with the Hilldale Daisies and the Philadelphia Stars. Mackey also mentored famed catcher Roy Campanella and had an unlikely role in the story of baseball's development in Japan. A celebrated ballplayer before African Americans were permitted to join Major League Baseball, Biz Mackey ranks as one of the top catchers ever to play the game. With Biz Mackey, he finally gets the biography he deserves"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aCatchers (Baseball)$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aBaseball$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAfrican American baseball players$vBiography 606 $aAfrican American baseball managers$vBiography 606 $aNegro leagues$xHistory 606 $aBaseball players$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aSPORTS & RECREATION / Baseball / History$2bisacsh 606 $aHISTORY / United States / State & Local / Middle Atlantic (DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA)$2bisacsh 606 $aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Women$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCatchers (Baseball) 615 0$aBaseball$xHistory 615 0$aAfrican American baseball players 615 0$aAfrican American baseball managers 615 0$aNegro leagues$xHistory. 615 0$aBaseball players 615 7$aSPORTS & RECREATION / Baseball / History. 615 7$aHISTORY / United States / State & Local / Middle Atlantic (DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA) 615 7$aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Women. 676 $a796.357092 686 $aSPO003030$aHIS036080$aBIO022000$2bisacsh 700 $aWestcott$b Rich$01027189 702 $aIrvin$b Monte 702 $aMackey$b Ray C. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466371703321 996 $aBiz Mackey, a giant behind the plate$92442482 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03373nam 2200709 a 450 001 9910778892303321 005 20230421035340.0 010 $a0-300-12773-1 010 $a9786611729653 010 $a1-281-72965-5 010 $a0-585-34880-4 035 $a(CKB)111004366651940 035 $a(StDuBDS)AH23049441 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000214826 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11169041 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000214826 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10167766 035 $a(PQKB)11009851 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000305085 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12098748 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000305085 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10285167 035 $a(PQKB)11347098 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3420360 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3420360 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10210243 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL172965 035 $a(OCoLC)842940047 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111004366651940 100 $a19961028d1997 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aOn toleration$b[electronic resource] /$fMichael Walzer 210 $aNew Haven $cYale University Press$dc1997 215 $a1 online resource (144 p.) 225 1 $aCastle lectures in ethics, politics, and economics 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 $a0-300-07019-5 311 $a0-300-07600-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 113-119) and index. 330 $bWhat kinds of political arrangements enable people from different national, racial, religious, or ethnic groups to live together in peace? In this book one of the most influential political theorists of our time discusses the politics of toleration. Michael Walzer examines five ; regimes of toleration; from multinational empires to immigrant societies and describes the strengths and weaknesses of each regime, as well as the varying forms of toleration and exclusion each fosters. Walzer shows how power, class, and gender interact with religion, race, and ethnicity in the different regimes and discusses how toleration works and how it should work in multicultural societies like the United States. Walzer offers an eloquent defense of toleration, group differences, and pluralism, moving quickly from theory to practical issues, concrete examples, and hard questions. His concluding argument is focused on the contemporary United States and represents an effort to join and advance the debates about ; culture war,; the politics of difference,; and the ; disuniting of America.; Although he takes a grim view of contemporary politics, he is optimistic about the possibility of coexistence: cultural pluralism and a common citizenship can go together, he suggests, in a strong and egalitarian democracy. 410 0$aCastle lectures in ethics, politics, and economics. 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aToleration 606 $aCultural pluralism 606 $aMulticulturalism 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aToleration. 615 0$aCultural pluralism. 615 0$aMulticulturalism. 676 $a305.8 700 $aWalzer$b Michael$0128376 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778892303321 996 $aOn toleration$916027 997 $aUNINA
