Welcome to HDAtv
Brought to you by the Hockey Diversity Alliance, HDAtv is an educational video series that brings the conversation of racism and discrimination in hockey to the forefront.
The series will provide historical context, teach mindfulness and offer education on allyship. Our intent is to deepen understanding of the challenges faced by BIPOC and other minority players while fostering acceptance, inclusion and opportunity for everyone in the hockey community.
