Now is as good a time as any to remind everyone that the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City (Negro Leagues Baseball Museum) exists to tell a deeply important American story -- one that is ultimately about triumph. Our history, good and bad, is all we have. Learning it is our duty.

Seeing so many posts about Autism, I decided to share a bit about my experience as a father and how a wrestler I didn't necessarily root for helped me out. Wrote this off the dome open.substack.com/pub/mrjoneslbc…

Thanks to a new book, people will discover scores of Black artists and record labels of Illinois — obscure and popular alike. The Numero Group’s “Soul Music of Illinois” is a comprehensive overview of the state’s soul music from 1960 to 1990. trib.al/CUqsjmg

It’s easier to come to grips with the end of Around the Horn than it is to imagine the show continuing without Tony Reali . No, he wasn’t the original host but he infused the show with his persona while simultaneously elevating the panelists.
