A forum for our efforts and achievements, sport reflects many of the qualities and attributes that are valued in society at large. We play and watch sports to discover what excellence looks like. That very compelling drama of striving, overcoming, and winning, which sport exemplifies – and which so captures our imagination and hearts – sometimes also brings into focus troubling dilemmas or unexpected difficulties on the playing field, which have yet to come into clear focus or resolution in society. Jackie Robinson’s first game for the Montreal Royals on April 18, 1946, crashed the nearly century-long barrier that excluded black players from the professional leagues. Neither racism nor segregation ended overnight, but the story that played out in games and seasons helped society reconsider its own prejudices, and re- imagine those new possibilities and practicalities to be developed in order to extend basic rights to all.
