Borderless Roller Derby
Indigenous Rising Roller Derby is the first of it's kind and the inagural "borderless" flat track roller derby team. We're proud to be members of the newly formed and growing No Borders Derby Collective.
Borderless Teams Belong
"Roller derby is an expensive sport and takes a lot of money and resources to be able to buy equipment and get to practices and games. When you come from privilege it’s just easier to achieve that empowerment. But when you come from a culture that has been marginalized and discriminated against—when other cultures weren’t trying to outright eradicate it—empowerment through roller derby is harder to achieve. In a moving ceremony led by the captains of Team Indigenous prior to the We Are Nation game, April Fournier (aka 'Jumpy McGee') said this was 'an opportunity to showcase two very diverse teams, who descend from peoples who have been forcibly removed from their homelands and continue to build lives and communities.'
