Like me, you probably know Jackie Robinson as the first African-American to integrate major league sports. That in all likelihood was all you were told. However, if this accomplishment is not given its proper context, our stance on the situation will allow us to stay stagnant as our new generation of athletes are coming in all colors, shapes, and sizes. DO THE RESEARCH, during Jackie Robinson's time in the majors, there was not 1 single team that was located in the deep south, a place in which the racial tension was the highest. Therefore, had it not been for the farm leagues, that produced the likes of Hank Aaron and Willie Mays. The entire landscape of sports, just would not be the same. Be the company that gives sports teams the flexibility to keep the wheels moving forward............gym44
