A Long Way from Home: The Untold Story of Baseball's Desegregation

Documentary

Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s color line in 1947, but it took another generation of Black and Latino players to make the sport truly open to all. Playing in remote minor-league towns, these were the men who, before they could live their big-league dreams, first had to beat Jim Crow.

Directed by Gaspar González
