"We are always excited to have the NHL's Black Hockey History Tour Truck stop in Nashville," said Robin Lee, Nashville Predators Senior Director of Corporate Sponsorship Service. "As our organization strives to be a leader in the diversity, equity and inclusion space, the Black Hockey History Truck is an amazing asset to share with our community. Representation matters and this exhibit is a great opportunity for minority students in our youth hockey programs to see what is possible and work towards that goal."
