As much about the Civil Rights Movement as it is about baseball, this two-room museum takes a detailed, clear-eyed look at the life of a great American hero and his times. It does so with the use of well-produced videos, a smattering of artifacts, and a savvy timeline plastered to the walls that juxtaposes milestones in Robinson’s life with important world events. However, for an attraction that will take most visitors about 45 minutes to see, the admissions price feels steep.
