Badass Birthday
On this day, in 1919, 107 years ago, in Georgia, Jackie Robinson was born.
You can't get much more badass than being the first person of color to break the segregation barrier and play in Major League Baseball. And way back in 1947 to boot! But in addition to all that, he Rookie Of The Year, the National League's Most Valuable Player, and played in six World Series!
He passed away in 1972 at the age of just 53.
