Welcome to the Edge of Sports Podcast. I'm Dave Ziron.

This week we're speaking to Leroy Moore, the founder of Crip Hop Nation, a movement demonstrating alternate arrangements by which hip hop artists with

disabilities can communicate through social media. We're going to be talking about the Paralympics.

It's a fascinating perspective. Also, I have some choice words about a story that I want to be

It's an international network of hip-hop
