“The League” Highlights the Influence of American Negro League Baseball | Amanpour and Company

When major league baseball banned African American athletes at the end of the 19th century, Black players created their own league. Its success and popularity is the focus of the new documentary "The League." Its acclaimed director, Sam Pollard, speaks with Walter Isaacson about how these players changed the game – and transformed the country.
