Last month was the premiere of our documentary film - Sidelined: The Color of the Game.
This film was a collaboration with the phenomenal organization Anti-Racism in Sport, which seeks to promote and engage in discussions on racism in sport and its impact on people’s lives. They help identify and disrupt all forms of racism through research, school presentations, stakeholder training and public awareness campaigns.
This documentary is meant to highlight the work that still needs to be done to address racism in Canadian sport, in an effort to reduce the awful, long-lasting effects on athletes, individuals and communities. The 50-minute film explores the the systemic barriers faced by First Nations, Métis Nation, Inuit, Black, Racialized, and Religious Minority participants in the field of play.
I want to give huge thanks to the athletes, researchers, coaches and sport officials for sharing their experience, and to everyone that had a hand in making this film happen.
The film is currently making its festival run. Here's the trailer!
