Also Known AsA Long Way from Home: The Untold Story of Baseball's Desegregation
About A Long Way from Home: The Untold Story of Baseball's Desegregation
Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s color line in 1947, but it took another generation of Black and Latino players to make the sport truly open to all. Playing in remote minor-league towns, these were the men who, before they could live their big-league dreams, first had to beat Jim Crow.
Directed by Gaspar González, A Long Way from Home: The Untold Story of Baseball's Desegregation leans on a strong ensemble — James 'Mudcat' Grant, Grover 'Deacon' Jones, Jimmy Wynn — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2018.
