"He led American by example. He reminded our people of what was right and he reminded them of what was wrong. I think it can be safely said today that Jackie Robinson made the United States a better nation." American League President Gene Budig.
Jackie Robinson Presente!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hero! He bravely stood up and took the hits so that many could follow in his footsteps and for the greater good of humanity.
It's a good thing to remember those who made a difference, and Jackie Robinson was indeed a brave man.
