time.com > The silent stoicism that marked Robinson’s early days the Brooklyn Dodgers was contrary to his character. Growing up in depression-era Pasadena,Calif.,Robinson spoke out against the injustice he saw nearly everywhere. He stood up to racist neighbors,Jim Crow customs,refusing to sit in the segregated section at the movie theater or leave a Woolworths lunch counter until he was served. Once,he was arrested for singing a song that a policeman found offensive. Another time,an officer,rushing to the scene of an argument to which Robinson was a bystander,pulled a gun on him before knowing who was to blame. As a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army during the Second World War,Robinson faced a court martial after refusing an order from a white civilian bus driver to move to the back of a military bus at Fort Hood,Texas—this was 10 years before Rosa Parks’s own bold act of defiance on a Montgomery,Ala.,bus.
