Baseball History

     
The Washington Post reports... "a new documentary titled “The League” by acclaimed director Sam Pollard....opens nationwide this weekend and is executive produced by Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson, shines a light on the individuals who helped grow the Negro Leagues into a thriving economic force that stabilized Black communities amid the Great Migration. It will be available to stream digitally on July 14.

 

No surprise that some of the recreations were filmed at Birmingham's Rickwood Field, once home to the Negro Leagues’ Birmingham Black Barons.
