The Mother's Day Episode: An Interview with Tammi Lynch, Founder of Players Against Hate

We had the privilege of talking to Tammi Lynch, who founded Players Against Hate.  Its mission is "to increase awareness and stop racism and name-calling by youth athletes, their teams and coaches, their families, and spectators," and was founded in response to racist taunts targeted at Divyne Apollon II, one of her son's teammates.  Because of her work with Players Against Hate, Tammi is one of three finalists for the Willie O'Ree Community Award, given annually the NHL at its awards ceremony.  We talked about how the organization began and its plans for the future.
