Bedford & Sullivan Podcast: Restoring John Donaldson's Legacy with Negro League Historian Peter Gorton



A Bedford & Sullivan Podcast welcomes back Negro Leagues Baseball historian and founder of The Donaldson Network, Peter Gorton.  Based in Minnesota, Mr. Gorton leads a group of historians dedicated to discovering the lost legacy of John Wesley Donaldson.  Hosted by yours truly, this episode will discuss Donaldson's lone season with the Brooklyn Royal Giants and his career accomplishments.  We'll learn about the life of one of the more incredible and inspiring athletes to ever play the game and how his fantastic legacy became lost to a nation.  With the Early Baseball Era Committee's upcoming vote on Dec. 5, the hope is John Wesley Donaldson is finally awarded a rightful place in the Hall of Fame.
