A Legendary Baltimore Boy

By: Shields, Erika

Legend Jackie Wright is the father that leads Leon''s family with pride. His namesake originates from Black American and Trini legends, such as Jackie Robinson and Jackie Wilson. Legend was born to his immigrant parents in Baltimore where he blooms into his cultures in equal parts.

This story bounces back and forth between the 90's and present day with baseball as the bridge. Stuck between a memory and reality, Legend reflects on baseball, food, family, and the city he loves so much.
