Jackie Robinson Day

Today is the 58th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the color Line in Baseball.hard to believe it's been only 58 years. I wish it were alot longer because that is a Sad reminder that is wasn't that long ago about the Seperatisim that was accepted within the nation. Jackie Robinson pre-dated the Civil Rights Bill that would come some almost 20 years later. Jackie Robinson should be a National Holiday to Me. He truly was a Ground-breaker who paved the way for so many. sadly He died far too young at only 53 because He had to deal with so much stress&pain for always having to Fight for Justice everyday. Jackie Robinson was a all Around Athlelte who was so Gifted&ahead of His time.truly One of a Kind.also Respect to Branch Ricky a White Man who beleived in Jackie Robinson&Helped Him get to the Dodgers.Respect to Mrs.Robinson&the Entire Robinson Family. also we have to get Young Black Kids back interested in Baseball. the game is suffering&needs to Keep Jackie's Legacy going strong. Jackie Robinson is a National Treasure to Me&always will be.
