National Hispanic Heritage Month September 15 to October 15--Recognition of the contributions of Hispanic and Latin Americans to the heritage and culture of the United States--
Originally from Puerto Rico, Roberto Clemente Walker came to the United States to play major league baseball in 1954. • He spent his career as a right fielder for the Pittsburgh Pirates. • Although he was an elite athlete, achieving over 3,000 base hits by the end of his career, Clemente faced racial bias in the United States. • This led Clemente to become an advocate for Latino and Black players’ rights in baseball. • He died in a plane crash in 1972, enroute to bring relief to earthquake-stricken Nicaragua. • He believed in a life of serving others. “Any time you have an opportunity to make a difference in this world and you don’t, then you are wasting your time on Earth.” https://www.rd.com/culture/hispanic-americans-who-made-history/ Roberto Clemente Walker
