The Integration of Baseball in Philadelphia
Christopher Threston
Attempts to integrate Philadelphia baseball began as early as the 1860s, but all of them proved futile until 1953. This is an examination of how Philadelphia acquired a reputation as a tough place for African-American players. It follows the very slow and difficult progress of integration.
