On May 21st, join professional basketball player Ryan Turell for a live conversation about what it means to show up as your full self—even in the face of hate.

As the first Orthodox Jew to play in the NBA’s G League and a current player in Israel’s Premier League, Ryan has made headlines for wearing a kippah during games, speaking out against antisemitism, and embracing his identity as part of his mission.

Join us on May 21 at 3:00 PM CT as Ryan shares his journey and discusses how sports can be a platform for resilience, representation, and allyship. A live Q&A will follow—so bring your students, teammates, and questions!
