Read this excerpt from / Never Had It Mac
Thirty-five years later, while I was lying awake nights, frustrated, unable to see a future, Mr. Rickey, by now the president of
the Dodgers, was also lying awake at night, trying to make up his mind about a new experiment.
He had never forgotten the agony of that black athlete. When he became a front-office executive in St. Louis, he had fought,
behind the scenes, against the custom that consigned black spectators to the Jim Crow section of the Sportsman's Park,
change the rules were in vain. Those in power argued that if blacks
were allowed a free choice of seating, white business would suffer.
