in America. A fierce integrationist, Robinson used his immense fame
to speak out against the discrimination he saw on and off the field,
angering fans, the press, and even teammates who had once celebrated him for “turning the other cheek.” After baseball, he was a
widely-read newspaper columnist, divisive political activist and tireless advocate for civil rights. 2016; rated PG; 240 minutes.
