I love how only Rachel Robinson told the truth. He was competitive. Not angry!!! And yet all the rest called him angry, just like those that called him that in his day. God bless Jackie and Rachel. We are all blessed to have had them.
The racism Jackie had to deal with back then makes me sick....Glad he came here to Montreal and felt the LOOOOVE....Very proud of my city back then and still!!!!
He was more racist then any white person on that field. You can see in the clips peopel are just playing baseball and he wants confrontation full of hate.
One of the great blights on mankind is the voice-over narration of every Ken Burns documentary. Why do I have the feeling I'm a toddler being fed his mush?
His series on jazz, studded with insightful comments from musicians, is so marred by the written script that I couldn't sit through even the first episode. Basically, he's dumb. Add shallow- if you can find room for that in the dumb part. He just pushes pre-installed buttons. The man has nothing original to contribute, which is why he always gets funding and air time. He's like I imagine CBS' Charles Kuralt would have been with a couple of Old Fashions under his belt.
You got to like the fire and passion in Jackie Robinson. He was a class act. If he saw an issue he would say it was an issue. Like the NY Yankees being prejudice, the entire sports franchises were then very prejudice just like most in New York people that ran the business at that time. But it is now 2020. Those times are gone. We measure a man not by the color of his skin but the content of his character. Hmmm who said that before?
I have so much respect for Jackie Robinson his determination helped him thru that horrible time of racism. Now he was a true American hero! Sadly he died so young due I do believe the stress count up with him.
I agree with having Jackie Robinson day and the Dodgers retiring his number but no player on any other team can wear it every day as a show of respect. As it is now the number is forced on everyone for a day then put in the closet for the other 161 games. Here's the list of all the players who wore 42. Now, no player ever can wear 42 for their entire career in honor of Robinson. www.baseball-reference.com/friv/numbers.cgi?number=42
I'm a lifetime New York Yankees fan from the Bronx. Of COURSE the Yankees were prejudiced! They could have had Willie Mays! Bigotry prevented having a Mays-Mantle tandem! Those a-holes!
@@vestibulateTruth be told, the Red Sox had the opportunity to sign Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays AND Hank Aaron. Can you imagine an outfield of Ted Williams, Willie Mays, and Hank Aaron!!??
And 4 years later we finally realize what exactly Kap was talking about. See we may have heard what the bro was saying; but we weren't collectively listening to the words that was coming out his mouth. If Kap just wanted more money all he had to do was 'Just shut up and play ball.' Rather he sacrificed his career for the truth.
That's what white liberals/democrats tend to do...I wonder why ? Maybe because 90% of Americans who owned the slaves were let's see democrats. 👀and the kkk, and Jim crow laws were created mmm by let's see democrats.
love this. this is what needs to be said. the truth is 99% of americans get the branch rickey story of jackie robinson. the is the man that needs to be celebrated. jesus f.c. why has it taken so long for me to see jackie was pissed off? mlk is greatest man of the 20th century but jackie robinson is in the top ten.
MLK is not the greatest man of the 20th century. Where would you even come off saying such a thing. He was a great man who did a lot of good for POC. But there was a agenda behind him. The American Zionist help fiance him to create instability in america so they could change the American culture. And it did. American culture has done a 360 and is a broken culture. The 60's was the start of degeneracy of America. Drugs no respect for the law. Dressing like savages. No self respect. Decline of education. Open sex. No respect for women. Lack of traditional marriage. The Zionist used MLK and his real beliefs as a screen to destroy America. Then they took care of him when they were finished with him. Malcolm X would be a more prominent figure for African Americans. Blacks were already being accepted much more into white society. Just a little too slow for them. You seen music film and sports start to have more inclusivness. They eventually would of gotten to where they wanted to be. But the Zionist stepped in just in perfect time to influence them into believing that they were never going to get where they wanted in white society. So they stepped in and shaped their beliefs. But now unfortunately we are all going down the tube. There definitely is a secret elite that want to destroy all civilizations. This will allow them to dominate. I know I have been around many prominent Jewish people in my life. And the few I knew that were involved in society. Well lets say they do not have any ones best interest at mind. And the things I learned that they did, it would give any reasonable person nightmares. Or would make them sick to their stomach. Now that does not negate the great things MLK did. And of course we want blacks to have the same things as whites. But to appease or capitulate to these treasoners is wrong. To even associate with them will end up dissentated state. But that is not his fault. They come as your friends. But with a sinister agenda. Only those who oppose and fight this elite, are the real hero's of this world. They are the ones who are trying to make the world a better place. The first step in solving any problem. Is to identify the problem. Then take action. Because they are a sneaky sly group. Who use the most pervasive methods. So you have to be very careful. Because like I said working with them will in the end do more harm.

If half the players now had the passion for the game like he did we would see some great games
Facts!

In my mind, Jackie Robinson was a saint he gave everyone so much to admire and emulate. God bless Jackie his family and everyone
I'M A JACKIE ROBINSON FAN.....#42
I would of been a Brooklyn Dodger Fan anytime anywhere back in the time Jackie Robinson was playing. I'm happily a New York Mets Fan.
It took a lot of courage to stand up in them days.
What would you expect anyone in his shoes to do?
He shouldn’t have to just because of what color he is because he’s on the team and he has every right to talk back on bad calls
I wish that the film "42" had shown the '55 World Series with him stealing home vs Yogi Berra!!!!

I never understand why would they say America was the land of the free?
You don't understand much.
The 2nd year was Robinson's best season
He ought to behave himself? I wonder who stated this. In addition, why are white people speaking for black people, very subjective.
