In today’s episode of the social justice podcast, Play It Forward presented by PeacePlayers, hosts Chinny and Emmett have a phenomenal conversation with Shane Young and Leroy Taylor of Memphis Inner City Rugby (MICR). Similar to PeacePlayers, MICR uses sport as a tool to create positive, impactful change, and we explore what that looks like and more. Shane is the co-founder and shares with the team the power of DEI and the importance of being self-aware; Leroy, MICR alumni and current coach with the organization gives insight into how MICR impacted his life. Lots to love, and lots to learn in this one, you’ll not want to skip past it!
