The 5th Grade Field Trip

 

On the field trip I saw a lot of cool stuff but the two things I liked the most was the baseball field because they made it to look like there was real people there and they were playing baseball. The second thing was the uniforms that the baseball players wore back when people were still segregated and it took you through time. I also saw a statue that said Bird Lives it was very fascinating and it was a sculpture of a man who loved jazz music.

 

 

 

I learned a lot about jazz and Negro baseball league. And that was you should always keep fighting for what's right and don’t give up no matter what people call you or say about you and that no matter what color you are people are all equal. I think people should come to that museum to learn all about jazz and baseball.  And that baseball and jazz can be very interesting when you take the time to learn about them. Some other stuff that were at the museum was old baseball bats and jazz musicians and stuff about them like Charlie Parker had played his music with other jazz artist like Bud,Charles,Max,and Dizzy or that Louis Armstrong was on protest on segregated school in Arkansas in 1957. Or that Joe pass made a drawing of Ella Fitzgerald. It was a fun field trip and I want to go their again.
