Tribute to Jackie Robinson |
Garfield Ave (Across from Pasadena City Hall) Los Angeles, CA 91101 |
This memorial is fittingly located a few blocks from where the legendary athlete and trailblazer was born. After facing constant scrutiny by the community for being part of the only black family living in the area, Jackie Robinson went on to become a star athlete at Pasadena City College and UCLA. He eventually became the first African American in major league baseball and the rest, as they say is history. The memorial depicts the visages of both Jackie and his older brother Mack, who also contributed to the civil rights movement. Review © 2009, Wcities |
