Changing on the Fly

Hockey Through the Voices of South Asian Canadians

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Hockey and multiculturalism are often noted as defining features of Canadian culture; yet, rarely are we forced to question the relationship and tensions between these two social constructs. This book seeks to inject more “color” into hockey’s historically white dominated narratives by amplifying the voices of South Asian hockey participants.
