Breaking Down Barriers

Part of

collection

Basketball has the power to unite people across racial, cultural, economic, and social lines. Unlike sports that require expensive equipment, the game is widely accessible — creating opportunities for communities across Toronto to connect, grow, and succeed.

Hear from the players, coaches, and community leaders who have witnessed basketball tear down barriers, open doors, and inspire change on and off the court.

Featured Interviews: Chris Penrose, Luke Galati, Lou Sialtsis, Alex Wong, Jamaal Magloire, Lee Anna Osei, Tamara Tatham, Ro Russell, Dalton Higgins, and Anthony Miller.
