Jackie Robinson #42

I Never Had it Made: An Autobiography of Jackie Robinson

 

I Never Had it Made is Robinson's own candid, hard-hitting account of what it took to become the first black man in history to play in the major leagues. Read the book and watch the movie 42. I saw the movie yesterday with my Dad—a big baseball fan who also played baseball. We both enjoyed the film of how Jackie Robinson broke the racial barrier and changed sports forever. If you haven't seen 42 yet, go see it! The trailer is below. Brooklyn Dodgers, we go hard!
