I Never Had It Made is the compelling autobiography of Jackie Robinson, the first African American to play Major League Baseball in the modern era. In this candid and inspiring memoir, Robinson recounts his life beyond baseball—from his early struggles with racism in Pasadena, California, to his historic breakthrough with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947, and his relentless fight for civil rights. The book goes beyond the ballpark, exploring Robinson’s role as a political activist, businessman, and spokesperson for racial justice.

Honest, thoughtful, and unflinching, I Never Had It Made offers a personal look at the life of a trailblazer who helped reshape American sports and society, revealing the emotional cost of breaking barriers—and the enduring courage it demanded.

About the Authors –

Jackie Robinson (1919–1972) was a groundbreaking athlete, civil rights activist, and the first African American to play Major League Baseball in the modern era, breaking the color barrier when he debuted with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. Beyond his remarkable sports career, Robinson became a powerful voice for racial equality, working with civil rights organizations and corporate America to promote justice and opportunity for Black Americans. His legacy extends far beyond baseball, symbolizing strength, dignity, and the courage to stand alone against discrimination.
