About this event
Black baseball in Washington state and the Pacific Northwest has a rich and resilient history, spanning from the late 19th century’s amateur teams to later professional Negro League teams to modern Major League Baseball. Join Baseball Beyond Borders founder Bookie Gates and sports historians Dave Eskenazi and Lyle Kenai Wilson for a discussion moderated by Converge Media founder Omari Salisbury. Learn about Black baseball, past, present and future, as a catalyst for change and a platform for community.
History Café is produced as a partnership between HistoryLink, The Pacific Northwest Historians Guild, and MOHAI. ASL Interpretation and CART captioning are available during the program. In addition, a limited number of Assistive Listening Devices are available upon request.
