520 In the 1930s, Monroe, Louisiana, was a town of twenty-six
thousand in the northeastern corner of the state, an area
described by the New Orleans Item as the and ldquo;lynch
law center of Louisiana. and rdquo; race relations were
bad, and the Depression was pitiless for most, especially
for the working class and mdash;a great many of whom had
no work at all or seasonal work at best. Yet for a few
years in the early 1930s, this unlikely spot was home to
the Monarchs, a national-caliber Negro League baseball
team. Crowds of black and white fans eagerly filled their
segregated grandstand seats to see the pages.
