ackie Robinson, Black — Warrior in a White World — African-American, Hall of Fame, MVP, World Series Victor, Civil Rights Champion, Crossed over White Lines, first in a lifetime to have fought upon and for glorious fields’ freedoms. Record breaker — Racist Breaker, with every base, with every run. Ugly taunts, death threats — yet Jim Crow defeated — against the hateful has overcome; Enduring games of anger, battling for a new America, for new fans won, By standing tall, hitting back strong, running down the racial, winning justice by action; Declaring there's not an American in this country free until free means everyone, 42’s Hope: A Future—not yet— where we all can stand together to sing the National Anthem. A New Day where the ballot and the buck tear down the confederacy of segregation. Ever Alive with Spirit Indomitable: Jackie Robinson.
