BLACK HISTORY MONTH DAY 23

Posted by: BLACK HISTORY ()

Date: February 27, 2021 03:50PM

Baseball fans know how Jackie Robinson integrated Major League Baseball, but did you know he fought for civil rights beyond the baseball field? In this clip from Ken Burns' documentary "Jackie Robinson" we learn about a time when Robinson was court-martialed after refusing to move to the back of a military bus. (The full film is available to Passport members, by the way.)
