As America celebrates the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson making his debut in the major leagues, we wanted to understand why there are so few Black baseball players today.

In this episode, we speak to a former Negro League player who also played in the major league. He describes the racism Black players experienced and why some left the Major Leagues for the Negro Leagues. We learn about Moses Fleetwood Walker, the first Black man to integrate baseball decades before Robinson. In addition, we explore why Black children seem less interested in baseball. Lastly, we find out why Jackie Robinson Day is so important.
