Who Integrated the NFL?

from American History Hotline · host iHeartPodcasts

Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in baseball. That's a well known piece of history. But who integrated the NFL?  Well, it's an amazing story with lots of binge drinking, miraculous comebacks and hot dog eating. Seriously.  Just in time for the Super Bowl, we're calling up David Fleming, author of A Big Mess in Texas: The Miraculous, Disastrous 1952 Dallas Texans and the Craziest Untold Story in NFL History. He explains how one of the worst teams in NFL history shaped the game we know today.    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
