WE, as a league do not want support from ANY openly racist platform. Point blank,PERIOD. If you,as the CEO cannot recognize that your platform promotes that of white supremacy & only further divides the athletic community, perhaps we need have a conversation. Pls keep your money.

Dear men who never played (or even come close to playing) a pro sport: telling me you can beat me in my sport IS NOT a pick up line…🤷🏽‍♀️😪

Today I stepped onto the ice & knew that every one of my teammates had my back. Kneeling or not kneeling, the one thing that is for sure is that we as the @riveters organization, know that there is no longer a place for racism in our sport. Today, I found a new love for the game!

My thoughts, experience and story on racism in hockey. This is not to offend anyone but instead bring awareness and promote togetherness within the hockey community!🤎🏒✊🏾

Over the last 22 years, I’ve laced up my skates to play the game I love. But, it’s time to pivot…

Yet another reason why I will be kneeling during the @NWHL bubble... so disappointing, disgusting & disheartening. #Whatispeacefulprotesting

In addition to the End Racism patches worn & the social justice t-shirts I will be rocking every game, I will also be raising money to support Black Girl Hockey Club & its scholarship fund over the course of the @NWHL Bubble! Elevate. Educate. Empower

I am so frustrated to hear that the @IIHFHockey Women’s U18 World’s is being cancelled again. To this date, playing in the Canadian jersey and getting to represent my country is easily one of my most proud and favorite moments in my hockey career. This is so crazy and unfair!🤯🤦🏽‍♀️

Hockey should be accessible for everyone. By working with @BlackGirlHockey, I’m hoping to ensure that more Black girls have the opportunities they deserve. Thank you @PlayersTribune for sharing my story!
