Default Minorities and Diversity in Hockey

Hi all,

My podcast, Beer League Talk, just did an interview with Damon Kwame Mason. You can hear it here : http://bit.ly/SoulOnIce. Mr. Mason made a documentary called Soul on Ice: Past, Present, and Future. The documentary is about the history and contribution of black athletes in hockey. Once learning about the movie, it piqued my curiosity on the subject. This is why I reached out to Mr. Mason to interview him about his project. I wasn't raised in a place that that much diversity in hockey. Calgary has quite a bit more diversity so has anyone hear had any experiences with being a minority playing hockey? Any thoughts or good/bad experiences you'd care to share?

I'd also appreciate if you gave this episode of the podcast a listen and a share. Thanks everyone!
