When his son and other Black youths were denied the opportunity to participate in white little leagues in 1966, Dr. William M.T. Forrester started his youth baseball league, the Metropolitan Junior Baseball League (MJBL). This new publication, written by Forrester's son, William M.T. Forrester Jr., tells a feel-good story that will inspire sports enthusiasts and anyone interested in African American history. Four decades after the launch of MJBL, Forrester Jr. led a national initiative through the organization his father started to help improve the quality of life for Black and underserved youths by providing educational and athletic programs. The focal point of this initiative was Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and some of the figureheads from this movement included a top executive from the sports industry, leading sports media networks, and the family of a perennial long-ball hitter in baseball. Black World Series is a story intended to motivate and inspire readers while gathering support for the MJBL program, which is still in operation today. Fans of true stories about overcoming adversity and preserving against incredible odds will find Black World Series a great addition to their home library
