Dodgers: Jackie Robinson Museum to Celebrate Legend’s Birthday with Screening of ’42’

Next week marks 104 years since the birth of Dodgers great and baseball legend Jackie Robinson on January 31, 1919. While last October was 50 years since Jackie passed away, his widow, Rachel, is still with us at age 100.

The Jackie Robinson Museum is located in New York City and run by the Jackie Robinson Foundation, and they have a pretty special event planned to celebrate Robinson’s birthday.

Before he was Black Panther, the late, great Chadwick Boseman did an outstanding job portraying Jackie on the big screen.
