children and raised by a single mom in relative poverty. Jackie grew up with a love of sports and a
fierce drive to succeed. At the outset of his athletic career, Major League Baseball remained
segregated. He was drafted by Branch Rickey to change all of that. On April 15, 1947, Jackie
became the first African-American athlete to play in the major leagues. Despite the racism he faced
from crowds, some teammates, and players from other teams, Jackie earned the National League's
Most Valuable Player award in 1949. In his decade-long caregs he helped his team win several
National League pennants and the greatest victory of all the World Series
In addition to breaking the color barrier in the world of athletics, Jackie became a vocal champion
of civil rights. In 1949, he testified on discrimination before the House Committee on Un-American
Activities. He also wrote letters to every American president who held office between 1956 and
1972 to urge them to do more to advance the cause of civil rights.
