Can
you imagine what it would be like if you were a fantastic baseball player
but weren't allowed to play because of the color of your skin? You'd
start your own baseball league, wouldn't you? That's just what the
African American players did. In the early 1900s, some of the best
players in the game were in the Negro League. Some of the names you
may have heard of are Satchel Paige, Ernie Banks, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays
and Jackie Robinson. They all got their start in the Negro League.
Come along and look through this scrapbook of this incredible league. |
