Celebrating Sports Diplomacy
Every American knows that Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s color barrier. How about for hockey?
On Jan. 18, 1958 Willie O'Ree changed hockey forever. In the midst of the civil rights movement, Willie became the first Black player in the National Hockey League. His story is remarkable, both on and off the ice. At the age of 60 he became the NHL's diversity ambassador and now, more than 26 years later, he continues pushing for diversity and inclusion.
The acclaimed documentary, Willie, is now available for free viewing online. The registration window extends through Saturday, February 27 at 4pm. https://bit.ly/2NLZ6d3). In addition, this evening at 10 p.m. Taiwan time Willie will join with the filmmakers LIVE to discuss the film and his life story. Information on this exciting panel discussion can also be found through the RSVP link.
This film is about more than hockey – it examines issues of race, equality, inclusion, community, and allyship, and how Willie overcame many barriers through goal setting, hard work and perseverance.

equality about color 在 公民聯盟 Facebook 的最佳解答
喬治•佛洛伊德(George Floyd)的死亡事件及美國各地的抗議活動反映出在應對種族歧視、執法人員與有色族群之間的不信任,以及社會正義方面的廣泛挑戰,應對這些挑戰既艱難且複雜,有時令人感到痛楚。但是,唯有我們強迫自己認知到這些問題,並承諾進行改善,美國才能實踐立國的諾言。美國維權人士及教授貝爾•胡克斯(bell hooks)曾說:「正義的核心是講真話,以實際的樣貌而非我們希望的方式來看待自己和這個世界。」世界各地自由開放的社會仰賴其公民來驅動改革,並使政府承擔責任。作為美國人,我們應該將這場悲劇視為進行必要改革的機會,確保所有美國人都能享有正義及平等。
為紀念喬治•佛洛伊德及其他遭受警察暴行和種族不公義的受害者,美國在台協會將推出一系列貼文,提供對抗種族不平等的相關線上資源,我們希望這些資源能夠協助他人,將這次的經驗教訓用於改善自己的民主體制。
The death of George Floyd and the ongoing protests in the United States reflect broader challenges of dealing with racial discrimination, distrust between law enforcement and communities of color, and social justice. Addressing these challenges is complicated, difficult and sometimes painful. But the United States can only fulfill the promises of our founding principles if we force ourselves to acknowledge these concerns and commit to do better. U.S. activist and professor bell hooks said: “The heart of justice is truth telling, seeing ourselves and the world the way it is rather than the way we want it to be.” Free and open societies around the world rely on their citizens to drive change and reform, and to hold governments accountable. We as Americans should use this tragedy as an opportunity to make necessary changes that ensure all Americans can enjoy justice and equality.
To honor the memory of George Floyd and other victims of police brutality and racial injustice, AIT will soon launch a series of posts providing online resources about the ongoing struggle against racial inequality. We hope these resources can provide insights on how others can apply these lessons to making their own democracies better.
