Memoir Reading Blog 3
Jackie Robinson's life after his baseball career is what makes up the framework of the memoir. He moved on to even greater things than baseball. Things such as becoming a politician and getting involved in civil rights. Robinson had relationships with numerous civil rights activists such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. It was his life after his career in baseball that left a lasting impression of who Jackie Robinson really is. Choosing to write about this aspect of his life, as well as his baseball career, really showed Robinson's character and who he truly was. He left a lasting impact on both the game of baseball and civil rights. Putting these two things together helps to create a positive image that will always be linked to the life of Jackie Robinson. This memoir is for those who are either fascinated with the game of baseball of civil rights itself. Robinson played a big role in both and this memoir can appeal to a wide variety of people and audiences.

Jackie Robinson impressed me very much. He could do great in so many fields. That's no easy. He must spend much time on these stuff. And his experience also gave others encouragement. Many people don't know they can do great in other field beside his work area. While from Jackie's experience we can know that, as long as you want, you can also do great in the second or even third area. Thanks for sharing.
