Plot summary

Anthony, a 12-year-old who loves to play hockey, leads his team, the Monarchs, to the championship game. Along the way, Anthony faces racist slurs, micro-aggressive insults, and stereotyping from members of the opposing team, the Cardinals, that are meant to throw Anthony off his game.
