Movie: Black Ice
"Black Ice" is an icebreaking expose on the influence and oppression of Black athletes in Canada’s most treasured sport, hockey. "Black Ice" is a historical document within the sphere of sports and outside of it, with anthropological context added. The migration of Black people to Canada from the southern United States constructed a flimsy pillar of national identity that believes Canada to be an escape from America’s racism, and this is partially to blame for how anti-Black racism within the nation was swept under the rug.
