So That Explains It...Jackie Robinson's Brother...

Jackie and Mack Robinson Memorial.
was on the 1939 Olympic Track Team with Jesse Owens and won a Silver Medal in Hitler's Berlin. Superior achievement and standing up to racism ran in the family. Jesse would have been teen then--maybe he met Jesse Owens.
Both brothers influenced their community in SoCal. Pasadena put up a statue to them.
