Tracie Canada is a cultural anthropologist with research and teaching interests in race, sport, kinship, and the performing body. Her dissertation and in-progress book manuscript, Tackling the Everyday: Race, Family, and Nation in Big-Time College Football, is informed by ethnographic research at universities in the southeastern United States. Canada's work details how institutional systems and everyday spaces order, discipline, and enact violence against Black players. She also shows how these players push back and move through everyday lives by reimagining notions of belonging and kinship, relying on a range of geographies of care. Dr. Canada is on faculty at Duke University.
