Description

In the junior hockey leagues in the 1960s, John Paris, Jr., an African-Canadian from Nova Scotia, dazzled and dominated on the ice. But he often faced racism on and off the ice. This is the story of John’s life from his childhood in Windsor, Nova Scotia, where he was rated one of the top prospects in Eastern Canada and scouted by the legendary Scotty Bowman, to his eventual decision to coach, beginning with the Montreal-area minor systems and on to the pro ranks with the IHL’s Atlanta Knights.
