I can’t wait to see this upcoming movie about Jackie Robinson and the integration of baseball. You’ll recognize Harrison Ford as Branch Rickey, a braver man than Indiana Jones, for Rickey decided–against the wishes of his fellow baseball executives–that racial segregation must end.
Who will be the Jackie Robinson for gay ballplayers? Maybe he’s already in the Major Leagues; maybe he’s in Little League. Let’s hope he has an easier time than Jackie.
