Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. xviii, [2], 359, [5] pages. Illustrations. Editor's Introduction. A Note on the Text. Notes. Location of Letters. Index. Ex-library with usual library markings. DJ had been pasted to boards. Michael G. Long is Associate Professor of Religious Studies and Peace and Conflict Studies at Elizabethtown College. Long has published numerous works on Martin Luther King, Jr., the Civil Rights Movement, Billy Graham, and Christian living. His books include First Class Citizenship: The Civil Rights Letters of Jackie Robinson and The Legacy of Billy Graham: Critical Reflections on America's Great Evangelist. At Elizabethtown College he teaches courses on Christian social ethics, the Civil Rights Movement, and peace and conflict studies. This work includes never-before-published letters that offer a rich portrait of the baseball star as a fearless advocate for racial justice at the highest levels of American politics. Jackie Robinson's courage on the baseball diamond is one of the great stories of the struggle for civil rights in America, and his Hall of Fame career speaks for itself. In First Class Citizenship, Jackie Robinson comes alive on the page. Michael G. Long has unearthed a remarkable trove of Robinson's correspondence with--and personal replies from--such figures as Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Martin Luther King, Hubert and Barry Goldwater. These conversations reveal the scope and depth of Robinson's effort during the 1950s and 1960s to rid America of racism. Writing eloquently and with evident passion, Robinson charted his own course, questioning the tactics of the civil rights movement, and challenging leaders when he felt they were guilty of hypocrisy--or worse. Through his words as well as his actions, Jackie Robinson personified the "first class citizenship" that he considered the birthright of all Americans, whatever their race.

The editor has unearthed a remarkable trove of Robinson's correspondence with--and personal replies from--such towering figures as Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, Hubert Humphrey, Nelson Rockefeller, and Barry Goldwater. These extraordinary conversations reveal the scope and depth of Robinson's effort during the 1950s and 1960s to rid America of racism. Long's first book on Jackie Robinson was selected as a best book of the year by Publishers Weekly.[citation needed] Long served as an expert historian for Ken Burns's documentary on Jackie Robinson. Robinson's character, his use of nonviolence, and his unquestionable talent challenged the traditional basis of segregation that had then marked many other aspects of American life. He influenced the culture of and contributed significantly to the civil rights movement.[7][8] Robinson also was the first black television analyst in MLB and the first black vice president of a major American corporation, Chock full o'Nuts. In the 1960s, he helped establish the Freedom National Bank, an African-American-owned financial institution based in Harlem, New York. After his death in 1972, Robinson was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal and Presidential Medal of Freedom in recognition of his achievements on and off the field. Michael G.
