Black Lives Matter

Are we starting all over again
Regardless of Jackie Robinson's fame
When will this end
Not just pretend
Thought it improved but still the same game

Saw Jackie play live for the old Montreal Royals in 1946... I was 11! It was his first game ever in professional baseball for a black player!!! Cheers Tom, Happy Jack!
