This study analyzes the experiences of African Americans in the physical education and kinesiology profession since the late 1850s. Using a variety of primary and secondary source material, we place special emphasis on the experiences of African American physical educators in higher education and in the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance and its southern, regional, and state chapters. Apparent from this examination is that African Americans have experienced various forms of racially discriminatory practices in physical education and kinesiology and have found it extraordinarily difficult to assume leader ship positions in the profession and be acknowledged for their scholarly and academic accomplishments.

Research on compliance of tourists to guidelines in Antarctica has been limited. This investigation explores if the current reporting methods sufficiently provide an accurate measure of tourists’ non-compliance. Specifically, the study addresses the compliance knowledge gap regarding Antarctic tourist behaviours by documenting instances of non-compliance with the General Guidelines for Visitors to the Antarctic (GGVA) to determine if the Antarctic Treaty Inspection Program (ATIP) and industry reports accurately reflect the frequency of non-compliance in the Antarctic. Conducted in-situ at four landing sites along the Antarctic Peninsula, documented instances of non-compliance, occur at a frequency of 1.63 instances per minute ashore. Based on available data from the ATIP and the International Association of Antarctic Tour Operators, this frequency of non-compliance challenges the status-quo and implies that further investigation is necessary.
