Louie Belina Show

June 8, 2015

belinaI’ve heard great things about Louie Belina and his show in College Station, Texas, from my friend Mitch Light of Athlon Sports. Mitch is a regular on Louie’s show, and today I had the chance to join Louie for two segments on Strong Inside. I have to say, of all the interviews I’ve done, very few people have read the book as thoroughly as Louie! Listen to the interview here.

  • “In a magnificently reported, nuanced
    but raw account of basketball and racism in the South during the 1960s, Andrew Maraniss tells the story of Perry Wallace’s struggle, loneliness, perseverance and eventual self-realization. A rare story about physical and intellectual courage that is both shocking and triumphant. ”

    Bob Woodward, Washington Post associate editor and author

Watch Andrew Maraniss talk about his inspiration to write Strong Inside, featuring archival footage of Perry Wallace in action.
