And by contributions to your pbs station, from viewers like you. Thank you. Pleased to welcome professor debra rhodie she has been articulating for the search for justice in the country, the latest book is called cheating, ethics and law in every day life. Professor good to have you on the program. Thank you for having me. Let me ask a strange question to start. Has, the notion or the definition of cheating, changed over the last 40 years as you have been doing this work . I dont think the definition has changed but the forms it takes do evolve with time. Technology, of course, has transformed the forms of cheating. You have file sharing, downloading music and lifting stuff off the internet. Whole sites on the internet that enable people to cut and paste their term paper and have somebody else write their papers. That is what has been the major thing. Maybe i could have asked that question before, you answered what i wanted to get at. Which is, theres a culture of cheating in the count

Schenectady had something very special in the 1913 Mohawk Giants. The team formed that year and was Schenectady’s first professional baseball team since the Frog Alleys (or Dorpians) departed for Scranton, Pennsylvania, in 1904.

Walter Johnson, one of the greatest pitchers of all time, had one of his greatest seasons in 1913, going 36-7.
But that fall, the Mohawk Colored Giants, a Black baseball team in Schenectady, added an unofficial loss to Johnson’s tally when he and an all-white team of major leaguers came to the city as part of a barnstorming tour.
Facing Johnson was Giants’ pitcher Frank Wickware, who possessed “one of the fastest fastballs of the era,” according to Steven Rice, a member of the Society for American Baseball Research.
Wickware was so confident that he would frequently belittle his opponents’ efforts by calling in his outfielders, reported a 1961 Schenectady Gazette article, “and there is no record that this bit of show-boating ever backfired.”
