"Hockey has a Problem" - Hockey's history with Racism and Misogyny
If you look back at the 2019-2020 hockey season, it should be really eye opening to anyone who considers themselves a hockey fan. All of these incidents this year can be looked as isolated, in the moment, and not indicative of what the “culture” is like. And many have chosen to look at it that way, unfortunately. Another way to see this is the symptom of the culture that hockey, and dominant sports fandom creates. The toxic, racist, misogynistic culture that continues today, behind the scenes.
