I chose this image of Jackie Robinson and one of his new white teammates because this is when Jackie Robinson broke the MLB's baseball color barrier, allowing the blacks and whites to play together in the same league. Robinson was the first one to do this all by himself and opened the gates for other colored players to play. I think this pictures shows how some whites welcomed the black players, making their experience in the MLB a good one, and showing how the MLB players today came together as one to play.
