Remembering Perry Wallace, A College Basketball Pioneer
Abstract
Perry Wallace was the first African American basketball player in the Southeastern Conference, despite not wanting to be a pioneer. Wallace is one of the notable people who died in 2017. Three years ago, he and his biographer Andrew Maraniss talked with NPR’s Audie Cornish about the realities of desegregation.
