  • Willie O'Ree, the great grandson of an escaped slave was the first African American Hockey player in the NHL. He played 22 Years. Not only did Willie break the color barrier for Hockey and make the sport accessible for African Americans, but he did it with one eye -- a secret he told only one person. Hear his story of triumph over extreme turmoil and what should have been a career ending eye injury, as well as the advice he received from Jackie Robinson, another trailblazing African American who broke the MLB color barrier in 1947 with the Brooklyn Dodgers.
