Jack Roosevelt "Jackie" Robinson (1919-1972) transcended sports to become one of America's most significant civil rights pioneers. After serving as a lieutenant in the U.S. Army during World War II, where he fought against discrimination by refusing to move to the back of a segregated military bus, Robinson made history in 1947 as the first African American to play in Major League Baseball. Beyond breaking the color barrier in sports, Robinson became a vocal civil rights activist, business leader, and philanthropist. He served on the NAACP's board, participated in the historic 1963 March on Washington, established the Jackie Robinson Construction Company to build housing for low-income families, and created the Jackie Robinson Foundation to provide educational opportunities for minority youth—leaving a legacy that extended far beyond his remarkable athletic achievements.
