Durham Region Roller Derby stands together with the Black Lives Matter movement. We apologize for this statement coming so late. Especially to the Black members of our league and derby community. We were silent for too long, watching things unfold within the world, our community, and league. We recognize that we need to be actively anti-racist, rather than support silently. To be silent is taking the side of the oppressor. Our league’s Code of Conduct reads that DRRD activel...y works to promote a climate that is welcoming, inclusive, non-discriminatory and non-oppressive. DRRD is a diverse and inclusive league that endeavors to provide opportunities to all involved with DRRD to participate and be involved to their full potential. It is clear to us that we need to do better. The diversity within our league is not representative of the diversity in Durham Region, and we are working to understand the barriers and how we can dismantle them to better support the Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) members of our community.
