Excellent point. The Yankees first black player (Elston Howard) joined the team in 1955.  Jackie Robinson was quoted by Howard's widow as suggesting the Yankees had to be forced into integrating.

 

1913-1955...that's nearly 45 years of the Yanks not reflecting the values of the Yanks.  

 

 

More Ellie (i even liked him after he went to the Red Sox) :
On October 29, 1968, Howard was released by the Red Sox. 
Howard returned to the Yankees the following year, where he served as first-base coach from 1969 to 1979. He was the first black coach in the American League. 
 

 I also did not know he invented "the longhorn":
Howard is also credited with being the first to use the extended index and pinky finger (
corna) to indicate that there were two out in the inning, this being more visible to teammates in the outfield than the usual "two" gesture of the index and middle fingers.

Hope they get the same results that guy did in the 70s blocking the train to the Concord Naval weapons Depot . The engineer blew the whistle coming around the corner at a few mph.  The you;dnt get out of the way.  He put the brakes on , but a full train takes quite a distance to stop.  Quick amputation.

Looks like fun.  They were all smiling and joking around.  I thought they were supposed to tie their arms together and when arrested call the arresting police officers pigs and stuff.

We’re at a very dangerous place in our nation’s history right now. Socialism and soft coups are not only being normalized and accepted,

but preferred by far too many Americans.

SEDITION: FBI Investigating Antifa For Plotting To Buy Guns From Cartel For ‘Armed Rebellion.’ ...........Follow the money.

 

Plus:

Antifa is known for using violent means, including in protests against peaceful conservative speakers, free speech advocates and even journalists. The well-documented instances of violence include a protester repeatedly punching a man in the face, throwing water bottles and launching fireworks at police officers and starting fires on a college campus with Molotov cocktails. The Daily Caller News Foundation’s reporting led to the arrest of an Antifa leader who stands accused of accosting and assaulting two Marines in Philadelphia.

 

Former Vice President Joe Biden launched his campaign for president by praising the group. He referred to a group of protesters who gathered in Charlottesville, VA, and violently confronted white nationalists “a courageous group of Americans.”

Antifa is just lefty muscle. Follow the money.
