PARIS – Welcome to “Andscape at the Olympics,” a video series where Andscape columnist William C. Rhoden, senior NBA writer Marc J. Spears and Andscape/ESPN commentator Ari Chambers will discuss the key topics involving Black athletes and culture at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

In Episode 1, Rhoden and Spears talk about arriving in Paris for the start of the Games and beginning the series at Cafe Tournon, where in the 1950s, Black American writers and artists such as Richard Wright, James Baldwin and Ollie Harrington came to converse and find community.
The two discuss why Black American artists and writers flocked to France and the welcoming feeling of Paris to Black people (1:01), the chances of the USA Basketball men's and women's teams losing in Paris (5:30) and what they're looking forward to and writing about in Paris -- including the Opening Ceremonies, Black gymnasts, breaking, 3x3 basketball (10:10).
