Jackie Robinson not only
changed baseball forever but it also changed the way race was viewed in
America. What he did was revolutionary;
he was the first African-American baseball player in the Major Leagues. Keep in
mind that this was during the 1940’s-50’s, so, there was already problems with
race anyway. Jackie knew this, but he played anyway. He paved the way for all
African-American baseball players everywhere. He stayed strong through the
racist remarks, attacks and threats. He even changed the world because there
were white children trying to be like him. He even inspired a child to join the
Major Leagues. I think the film was
awesome! It was true-to-life. There were no flaws in the movie at all. I can
even go back and see it a third time!
It gets 5 out of 5 stars from
me.
