Pride and Passion: The African American Baseball Experience - A Traveling Exhibition to Libraries
"Pride and Passion: the African American Baseball Experience" is a traveling exhibition based upon a permanent exhibition of the same name at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, NY. The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) provided major funding to the ALA Public Programs office for the traveling exhibition. Through a cultural timeline of American History, visitors will be able to place the African American baseball story into the larger context of American History from the 1860's to the present. The exhibit will be at each location chosen for a period of six weeks.
