Jackie Robinson, while maybe having friends on his team, had nothing else throughout baseball. He was alone, he was a scapegoat for other players to abuse. The man was abused physically, emotionally, and mentally both on and off the field... I don't care what that kid in your class thinks, instead read the facts and you shall see for yourself, Jackie Robinson lived a short-life because of the amount of pressure he faced BOTH on and off the field. Both scenarios were just as bad...
