WILLIE O’REE: LESSONS IN SOCIAL JUSTICE & RACISM

 

From the OMHA, "Produced by Bryant McBride, the Willie documentary tells the story of Willie O’Ree, the first black player in the NHL. O’Ree had a tremendous impact on the sport of hockey and the communities he served. The NHL and Classroom Champions have come together to create a digital experience to facilitate discussion and learning around social justice and race through the lens of O’Ree’s experiences shown in the documentary."

They have included a link to a downloadable teachers guide and resource on the site. To see the website click here.
