As we gear up for the 2025 SABR Jerry Malloy Negro League Conference in Louisville, it's a great time to reflect on the impact of the Negro Leagues on baseball and society as a whole. This conference, dedicated to the examination and promotion of Black baseball history, has been a vital platform for education and awareness since its inception in 1998.
What are your thoughts on the significance of preserving the history of the Negro Leagues? Do you believe that the contributions of African-American players have been adequately recognized in mainstream baseball narratives?
Moreover, with the ongoing efforts to raise funds for the Negro Leagues Baseball Grave Marker Project and scholarships for high school seniors, how do you see these initiatives shaping the future of baseball history education?
Let’s also consider the broader implications: How can the lessons learned from the Negro Leagues inform our understanding of diversity and inclusion in today’s game?
As we anticipate the upcoming conference, what bold predictions do you have for discussions or revelations that might emerge? Will we see a renewed focus on certain players or events that have been overlooked?
Join the conversation and share your insights, experiences, and predictions!
