Episode Description
What does hockey's first organized league and a colony of creative rabbits have in common? One was black, one was white, but both buck expectations and deserve some overdue recognition for being really freaking good in their fields. Listen and learn about The Colored Hockey League and The White Rabbits (women sculptors) of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.
