The Rhythm Boys of Omaha Central: High School Basketball at the '68 Racial DivideIn the spring of 1968, the Omaha Central High School basketball team made history with its first all black starting lineup. Their nickname, the Rhythm Boys, captured who they were and what they did on the court. Led by star center Dwaine Dillard, the Rhythm Boys were a shoo in to win the state championship. But something happened on their way to glory. In early March, segregationist George Wallace, in a third party presidential bid, made a campaign
In the spring of 1968, the Omaha Central High School basketball team made history with its first all-black starting lineup. Their nickname, the Rhythm Boys, captured who they were and what they did on the court. Led by star center Dwaine Dillard, the Rhythm Boys were a shoo-in to win the state championship. But something happened on their way to glory. In early March, segregationist George Wallace, in a third-party presidential bid, made a campaign stop in Omaha. By the time he left town, Dillard was in jail, his coach was caught between angry political factions, and the city teetered on the edge of racial violence. So began the Nebraska state high school basketball tournament the next day, caught in the vise of history. The Rhythm Boys of Omaha Central tells a true story about high school basketball, black awakening and rebellion, and innocence lost in a watershed year. The drama of civil rights in 1968 plays out in this riveting social history of sports, politics, race, and popular culture in the American heartland.Binding Type: Paperback

Love it.
Color: 03 Glistening Bronze
I got the darkest one and it’s really nice even though I am so pale skinned. It will be beautiful shimmer for summer.. the bottle looks bigger than it is but it’s still a great product. I don’t know if the sunscreen part is legit but I haven’t tried. I just got it for the glitter.

A fresh dewy glow.
Color: 01 Rose Gold
My First time purchase and am clearly lovin it. Glitter creates a nature sheen
and a dewy, moist appearance. Color I chose blends perfectly with my
light base.

Nice Glow Just Sticky
Color: 03 Glistening Bronze
I was really excited to try this body glow oil, especially since it has SPF 45, getting sun protection and a bronzed shimmer all in one sounded perfect. The color is beautiful and gives a nice glow without looking too glittery, which I appreciate. However, it does feel a bit sticky right after application. I ended up lightly dusting some setting powder over it, which helped a lot to take down the tackiness and make it feel more comfortable throughout the day. Just a heads-up: you don’t need a lot of product, start with a small amount and build up if needed. It absorbs fairly quickly but still leaves that dewy finish, so it might not be ideal if you’re not into that slightly glossy feel. Overall, though, I really like the effect, especially for photos or a night out. Just takes a little trial and error to get it to work how you want!
