Jackie Robinson

How do you think Jackie Robinson’s role influenced the civil rights movement?

He came into spotlight about 8 years before the Mongomery Bus Boycott and seven years before the Brown v. Board of Edu. took place. He was definitely a role model for many young children and adults too. How do you think his role in MLB influenced the civil rights movement or just the way black americans were viewed?

hello. Jackie Robinson’s role in that era was very significant, a ‘commupance’ for America to awake and ‘live’ the truth of the Constitution Abraham Lincoln had portrayed for America. In some of the Dodger’s first road trips, Robinson was NOT served food in certain cities. His treammates helped him, best they could. America was still very ‘closed’ in that way.
