On #ThisDayInHistory in 1945, #baseball player #JackieRobinson signed a contract with the #Brooklyn #Dodgers, ending #RacialSegregation in the sport. Within six years the #NegroLeague was shut down though #MLB did not integrate the statistics with those of white teams until 2024.

I got this awesome #ttm return from Bill Greason today. He will turn 101 in five weeks. He is a veteran of WW2 and Korea. He played for the Birmingham Black Barrons, where he was a #NegroLeague All Star in 1949. He also signed my letter to him with a short note. Thank you, sir! #cardsky #thehobby
OMG. Found my autographed postcards from Stanley Glenn of the #NegroLeague #Philadelphia Stars. It was my first ever interview in fifth grade. His wife was a member of our church. I’ll never forget him saying, “We whooped those white boys’ ass,” when we talked about the NL/MLB exhibitions.
#MLB #NegroLeague Baseball Card Dream Team with Essential Cards at Each Position, www.si.com/collectibles...
Baseball cards are a big collector item. Have been for ages. Just learned players of the Negro League did not have cards here in US like white counterparts. Their cards were made mostly in Cuba! #history #baseball #NegroLeague #ChesterCountyHistoryCenter
The #NFL racist... Imagine that!
#ShedeurSanders 🥷🏾 Should Have Had a #NegroLeague since #ColinKaepernick
This is NOT new! In the 1920s the #NegroLeague had several teams who performed to bring in the audiences. This is why we need history taught to stop the theft of #BlackAmerican contributions. #60Minutes
A tough one for me but I got them all!

My existence is my resistance! But it doesn’t hurt to have a good hoodie or shirt to spread the message. This is how I keep #DEI alive in Fed gov. As a Black Trans public servant I MUST remain VISIBLE.

Me shaking hands with Dennis "Bose" Biddle. I am on the left wearing a green shirt and a Milwaukee Brewers baseball cap. He is several inches taller than me, African American with graying hair, and wearing a blue jacket.
Me with Dennis "Bose" Biddle. He was a player in the old Negro League when African Americans had their own separate baseball league. He was the youngest player ever signed. He wrote Secrets of the Negro League about his experiences. #BlackHistoryMonth #DennisBoseBiddle #NegroLeague #Baseball #Author
Favorite #NegroLeague cards, #JackieRobinson, #SatchellPaige. Donated them to the #NegroLeaguesBaseballMuseum
I haven’t found the #NegroLeague historians here yet.
Anyone, anyone?

Ike Walker’s two brothers played in the Negro Leagues. He’s part of a celebration of black ballplayers this week. Here in #ROC Jeff Klein is a big supporter. They react to @MLB’s inclusion of #NegroLeague stats in the record books. @SPECNews1ROC specne.ws/hVZGoq
With MLB's Rickwood Field game coming up, check out our stories on former Negro Leagues ballparks, both full-time homes and barnstorming locations. Not many full-time homes left; lots and lots of barnstorming locations. #MLB #sportsbiz #negroleague #negroleagues ballparkdigest.com/2020/06/15/b...
There goes another statue. #JoshGibson #TyCobb #Baseball #Woke #MLB #Racism #MAGA #Trump #NegroLeague #ConfederateStatues
On #MLB incorporating the records of the #NegroLeague: As I always say, some black folks want the best black things in the possession of and on display by white folks. If white folks sat the Sphinx on the mall they'd die and go to heaven.
