The Baseball Game Between the KKK and a Negro League Team

The video explores a 1925 baseball game in Wichita, Kansas, where the KKK played against an all-black team, the Wichita Monrovians. The game was a publicity stunt by the KKK to improve its image. Despite the tense racial climate, the game was peaceful and ended with the Monrovians winning. The event, largely forgotten, highlights the potential for sports to bridge racial divides. The video also touches on the broader impact of sports on race relations, referencing Jackie Robinson's historic MLB debut.
