Season 1
Episodes
Part 1 of 2
Jackie Robinson, the grandson of slaves, rises from humble origins to cross baseball's color line and integrate Major League Baseball. He becomes one of the most beloved men in America performing brilliantly despite the threats and abuse he faces on and off the field, and in the process, challenges the prejudiced notions of what a black man could achieve.
Part 2 of 2
Robinson uses his immense fame to speak out against the injustice he sees nearly everywhere, alienating many who had once celebrated him for "turning the other cheek." After baseball, he seeks new ways to fight discrimination, but as the civil rights movement he once seemed to embody becomes more militant and he faces a crippling illness, Robinson struggles to remain relevant.
