Social INTERVIEWS
A deep dive into the legacy of base Beyond Roberto Sr.’s Hall of Fame resume and great Humanitarian work, Roberto Clemente Jr. and I will discuss his dad’s underreported close friendship with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. fostered by their shared activism for social and racial justice. Like Jackie Robinson, Clemente faced racism from fans, sportswriters and teammates alike but leveraged his standing as the first Latino superstar to call out injustices and implored the Pirates to hire more players of color. And they listened. By the early 1970s, half the Pittsburgh roster was Black, Latino, or Spanish-speaking, and in 1971, for the first time in National or American League history, the Pirates fielded an all-Black and Latino lineup.
Roberto Clemente Jr talks about legacy, resilience, overcoming adversity, and the beauty of helping others. Uncovering the drive that propels greatness.
