The Rhythm Boys of Omaha Central: High School Basketball at the '68 Racial DivideIn the spring of 1968, the Omaha Central High School basketball team made history with its first all black starting lineup. Their nickname, the Rhythm Boys, captured who they were and what they did on the court. Led by star center Dwaine Dillard, the Rhythm Boys were a shoo in to win the state championship. But something happened on their way to glory. In early March, segregationist George Wallace, in a third party presidential bid, made a campaign
In the spring of 1968, the Omaha Central High School basketball team made history with its first all-black starting lineup. Their nickname, the Rhythm Boys, captured who they were and what they did on the court. Led by star center Dwaine Dillard, the Rhythm Boys were a shoo-in to win the state championship. But something happened on their way to glory. In early March, segregationist George Wallace, in a third-party presidential bid, made a campaign stop in Omaha. By the time he left town, Dillard was in jail, his coach was caught between angry political factions, and the city teetered on the edge of racial violence. So began the Nebraska state high school basketball tournament the next day, caught in the vise of history. The Rhythm Boys of Omaha Central tells a true story about high school basketball, black awakening and rebellion, and innocence lost in a watershed year. The drama of civil rights in 1968 plays out in this riveting social history of sports, politics, race, and popular culture in the American heartland.Binding Type: Paperback

Lasted all night long!
Pattern Name: classic
These were perfectly what I envisioned for the Coldplay concert! I’m a girlie who likes to glam up and these did not disappoint. I was hesitant to see if they would stick or fall off since I would be laying them on top of a full face of make up, but nope not a single problem not even with a little sweat from all the walking and dancing. Plus I love the fact that I had a variety to choose from and they are so much fun. Can’t wait for the upcoming rave to wear again.
