Today’s episode is a great one! Bob Kendrick, the President of the Negro League Baseball Museum joined to talk about the museum and the history of the Negro Leagues. Mr. Kendrick was also an athlete in college and a lot of his experiences led him to the position he is in today. Bob Kendrick is from a small town in Georgia and went to Missouri to play basketball at Park College. Through his years there he got involved with the Negro Leagues Museum and never looked back. 

Mr. Kendrick talked about the 100th Anniversary of Negro League baseball, which is this year. To celebrate, he came up with a campaign called Tipping Your Cap which blew up and gained traction throughout the world!
