This February, in honor of Black History Month, Pros & Prose will be focusing on the stories of black athletes and their fight for equality. To begin, Micah interviewed Andrew Maraniss, the New York Times bestselling author of Strong Inside, a biography of Perry Wallace, who became the first black basketball player in SEC history. They had a great conversation and Andrew had lots of great insights about Perry's struggles, triumphs, and legacy.
