Abstract

In this article, we explore the responses of crossfit practitioners to the 'canceling' of Greg Glassman in the aftermath of racist tweets and comments made in response to the killing of George Floyd. We draw on 50 interviews with crossfit practitioners to understand how they interpret and respond to the 'canceling' of Greg Glassman and the disavowal of CrossFit by prominent CrossFit athletes and organizations. We probe how athletes, regardless of levels of involvement, in the wake of Glassman's comments respond to the refiguring of the sporting community of CrossFit. A cancel culture continuum from affirmation to rejection emerged from the interview data that typified their views of cancel culture, Greg Glassman's removal from CrossFit HQ, and the current state of the sport. We conclude with a discussion of the phenomena of canceling or cancel culture and reflects on crossfit as a sport in light of the Glassman affair.

CrossFit 和 "取消文化":探究练习者对格雷格-格拉斯曼 "取消 "的反应。
在这篇文章中,我们探讨了 Crossfit 从业人员对格雷格-格拉斯曼在针对乔治-弗洛伊德遇害事件发表种族主义推文和评论后被 "取消 "的反应。我们通过对 50 名 Crossfit 从业者的访谈,了解他们如何解读和回应格雷格-格拉斯曼的 "取消 "以及著名 CrossFit 运动员和组织对 CrossFit 的否认。我们探究了在格拉斯曼发表评论后,运动员(无论参与程度如何)如何回应 CrossFit 体育社区的重塑。从访谈数据中,我们发现了一个从肯定到拒绝的取消文化连续体,它典型地反映了他们对取消文化、格雷格-格拉斯曼被撤出 CrossFit 总部以及这项运动的现状的看法。最后,我们对取消或取消文化现象进行了讨论,并结合格拉斯曼事件对 Crossfit 这项运动进行了反思。
