The Ku Klux Klan burned many houses of African Americans as well as the white people that wanted to help them.

Baseball has been America’s pastime since the late 1800’s. White men were the only ones who played the sport. Major League Baseball denied the access of allowing black players to play on the same field as the white players. They believed it would increase the amount of black fans coming to the stadiums and push away the white fans from coming to watch baseball anymore. In 1945‚ a new commissioner of baseball was hired‚ Happy Chandler‚ and he was more supportive of integrating the major leagues. People
