The Civil Rights Movement
Jackie Robinson played a huge role in the Civil Rights Movement. He was well-respected in the black and white communities from his MLB career. This helped him grow popularity and respect in his politician times. He also used his celebrity status to help blacks who had been denied their constitutional rights.
Jackie worked alongside of Doctor Martin Luther King Jr, the most important civil rights leader. Without the cooperation of these two men, the color barrier most likely never would have been shattered. They showed up at civil rights events, gave speeches, and encouraged people to follow their dreams and not let anyone stop them.
Jackie Robinson and Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. had a huge influence on society. They are the main reason why blacks have what is rightfully theirs. Also, many African-Americans now have very important roles in society, for example, Barack Obama, the 44th president of the United States.
