What reading level is Branch Rickey book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Branch Rickey is walking into the Carlton Branch of the YMCA in Brooklyn to talk to thirty civic leaders, all men of color, about Robinson. Of the six points he had written down at the start of this grand experiment, he had achieved all but one: “the backing and thorough understanding from the Negro race, to avoid misrepresentation and abuse of the project.” Now he was setting to finish the job.
He got up right away. “I’m not going to tell you what you hope to hear. Someone close to me said I di...dn’t have the guts to tell you what I wanted to do; that I didn’t have the courage to give it and that you people wouldn’t be able to take it. I believe all of us here tonight have the courage. I have a ballplayer named Jackie Robinson . . . on the Montreal team . . . He may stay there . . . He may be brought to Brooklyn. But if Jackie Robinson does come up to the Dodgers the biggest threat to his success—the one enemy most likely to ruin that success—is the Negro people themselves!
