The legend of the Chatham Coloured All Stars baseball team
This is Black History Month. Did you know there was a Canadian baseball team in the 1930’s called the Chatham Coloured All Stars? This team broke down a lot of racial barriers in the sport early on. Miriam Wright wrote a book on the team called Sporting Justice. She says the squad faced a lot of adversity in the beginning including having stones thrown at them. Wright explains in this interview with BCN’s Hal Roberts.
