#28: Jackie Robinson
Jackie Robinson was more than just a baseball player—he was a trailblazer who changed the game forever. In 1947, he broke the color barrier with the Brooklyn Dodgers and made history. He faced constant racism, threats, and cruel treatment from fans and players.

He played with grace, skill, and incredible restraint despite the pressure. Robinson let his talent speak, proving he belonged on the biggest stage. His courage went beyond baseball and inspired change across America. With every stolen base and clutch hit, he challenged hate.
