He then discusses his early academic interest in the history of sports and offers a nuanced critique of the recent film about Jackie Robinson, "42". He also reminisces about his own connection with filmmaker Ken Burns's series about baseball.
Dr. Goldstein then talks about his abiding interest in the history of race relations in America, focusing on the careers of two remarkable clerics about whom he has written: the Rev. William Sloane Coffin, Jr. and Martin Luther King, Jr.
