SEPTEMBER 20, 2002
Received and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Recognizing the teams and players of the Negro Baseball
Leagues for their achievements, dedication, sacrifices,
and contributions to baseball and the Nation.
Whereas even though African-Americans were excluded from
playing in the major leagues of baseball with their Cauca-
sian counterparts, the desire of some African-Americans
to play baseball could not be repressed;
Whereas African-Americans began organizing their own pro-
fessional baseball teams in 1885;
HCON 337 RFS
Whereas 6 separate baseball leagues, known collectively as
the Negro Baseball Leagues, were organized by African-
Americans between 1920 and 1960;
Whereas the Negro Baseball Leagues included exceptionally
talented players;
Whereas Jackie Robinson, whose career began in the Negro
Baseball Leagues, was named Rookie of the Year in 1947
and subsequently led the Brooklyn Dodgers to 6 National
League pennants and a World Series championship;
Whereas by achieving success on the baseball field, African-
American baseball players helped break down color bar-
riers and integrate African-Americans into all aspects of
society in the United States;
Whereas during World War II, more than 50 Negro Baseball
League players served in the Armed Forces of the United
States;
Whereas during an era of sexism and gender barriers, 3
women played in the Negro Baseball Leagues;
Whereas the Negro Baseball Leagues helped teach the people
of the United States that what matters most is not the
color of a person’s skin, but the content of that person’s
character and the measure of that person’s skills and
abilities;
Whereas only in recent years has the history of the Negro
Baseball Leagues begun receiving the recognition that it
deserves; and
Whereas baseball is the national pastime and reflects the his-
tory of the Nation: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That Congress recognizes the teams and play-

ers of the Negro Baseball Leagues for their achievements,
