Jesse "Cab" Renick: In Search of an Indian Identity (open access)

Jesse "Cab" Renick: In Search of an Indian Identity

This article argues that Jesse "Cab" Renick's Indian identity and his contribution to sports should be reexamined. Only three American Indian athletes have earned gold medals at Olympic Games between 1896 and 2010. One of those athletes was Jesse "Cab" Renick, a basketball player with the 1948 U.S. Olympic team. Although he was Choctaw and Chickasaw, he did not grow up with a prominent American Indian identity and did not identify himself as such.
