This movie is based on the famous baseball player Jackie Robinson. Born on January 31, 1919 and died on October 24, 1972, Jackie Robinson was the first black player in the history of Major League Baseball, and was only allowed to play in his own Negro league until he made his debut as a starting first baseman for the Brooklyn Dodgers on April 15, 1947, wearing number 42 on his jersey. Although slavery had long been abolished in the United States, segregation was still practiced in many areas, and racial prejudice was still strong at all levels of society. Therefore, the day Robinson stepped onto the Major League Baseball field is recognized as one of the most important events in the history of America's modern civil rights movement.#shorts #movie #tvshow #tvmovie #movieclips #film
