Abstract
This essay suggests that dynamics of race in/and mediated sport can be productively understood when theorized as an interactive phenomenon that gives rise to micro-macro forms of human-mediated organizing. A theoretical framework of racialized sport organizing is articulated, informed by Giddens' (1984) philosophy of structuration, which provides a productive transition from viewing processes of race in/and sport as only a direct form of mediated influence, to also understanding such processes as a micro-macro phenomenon that becomes pragmatically organized through human-mediated interaction(s). The framework provides heightened theoretical, methodological, empirical, and disciplinary insight into the interactive nature of racialized issues in/and mediated sport, in particular, and to all organized forms of human-mediated communication processes, in general.
