Love that folks are talking about sarah nurse & her record breaking scoring!! For context, there has never been another Black woman on any Olympic ice hockey team, ever. She's the 1st to win gold + 1st & ONLY Black woman to ever play at that level.

Words matter. Who you surround yourself with matters. Media you ingest matters. Authentic allyship means you aren't just "listening and learning", you're actively working against oppression. If you're taping your stick in rainbow colors but hate trans women, you're full of shit.

Hockey needs engagement like this, not gatekeeping from folks who expect admittedly new fans to know every detail about their favorite players and teams. He's putting in the work and he's not wrong.
