The Chicago White Sox will honor Jackie Robinson by wearing number 42 on Jackie Robinson Day, accompanied by players from the Amateur City Elite (ACE) program. Micah Johnson, a former White Sox player and now an artist, plays a pivotal role in this recognition, emphasizing empowerment and discussing both successes and failures. Johnson's interaction with ACE students highlights his impact as a role model, promoting the belief that pursuing dreams, much like Jackie Robinson, is achievable. The event underscores the connection between sports, art, and personal growth for the youth involved.
The likelihood of Jackie Robinson playing Major League Baseball at that time did not seem real. But it ended up happening.
My whole platform is about empowering kids to chase their dreams. And the White Sox allowed me to chase mine.
