@terrytari1891 It matters because of US one drop rule. At the time, if Babe Ruth had any black ancestry any at all despite looking phenotypically white he could not have played in the major league. He would have been segregated to the Negro league and never become the baseball star that he became.
Bro looks more like Albert Einstein than Ruth. And the only kind of black he could be. Has to be the same kind like the rapper “Logic”. Who claims to be black. I had an uncle who’s parents where light skinned black people. But he came out looking white. Like Robin Williams.
Ruth was an advocate for Black inclusion in Major League baseball from the beginning , and barnstormed with Negro League teams in the off season. He was excluded from baseball management after his playing days because it was well known he would have brought in Black players. Regardless of whether he was Black or not, he was definitely on the right side of history and morals.

They ridiculed Lombardi for looking Black when he was a player ..when I was little I used to see him in the old sports books and wonder how he was the only black dude they allowed to coach an NFL team back then 💁🏽😂
His mom was straight off the boat German. But his father looked JUST LIKE HIM and his family record is basically non-existent. It's certainly possible. But also, if true, his father was 'passing' as well and it's possible even Babe himself didn't know.
I always thought Babe Ruth was Black ever since I was a child. My Mom would always correct me and say he was white. I didn’t understand why she couldn’t see it.
So true about Opelousas. I was raised white but have black ancestry and in places like Opelousas the white people *know* and it's not pleasant. Well, so do the Black people, but that's the good part of this equation. But in general, I'm not recognized outside of the South.
@newelldavis1858 FALSE!!! The cradle of civilization is Mesopotamia, or the Fertile Crescent. Which is the Middle East, Babylon, Sumeria, and the Holy Land of Palestine. If you knew archeology then you would realize there were more megafauna in North America than Africa. The flood wiped out all the big mammals in North America. We had Horses, camels, lions, mastodon, wooly mammoths, short faced bears, dire wolves, and many many more larger animals than Africa has today.
Babe’s support for black players and fans was highly commendable. He was a kind and big-hearted man and would have been that way no matter his origins. But he knew who he was, and he went to our Lord with the statue of Martin de Porres (champion of social justice and mixed-race peoples) next to his bed.

Yes, Babe Ruth was Black and so was Carol Channing, Tom Jones and Rockefeller’s wife, who founded Spellman college, an HBCU. Does it matter, yes because they were top performers in their fields.
Even if he has zero black ancestry (probably the most likely answer), he didn’t have a racist bone in his body in a time where many whites were very racist. He was all for integrating MLB, did barnstorming tours with the Negro Leagues, and frequently hung out in Harlem when few whites would. Babe Ruth had a big heart despite the tales of his off-field antics!

I would think if Babe Ruth had Black lineage, it would come from his father George Herman Ruth Sr, who Babe was a splitting image of. Since Babe Ruth's parents are documented and not a mystery (his mother was Katherine Schamberger) can't someone do a ancestral family search and possibly find out?
It doesn’t matter. However, his ancestry is of German decent. He has living dependents. If he was black we would know about it in the age of DNA testing. There is absolutely no reason to keep it secret now.
He does carry some of the signifiers for African American heritage in his facial features (larger, wider nose, even bullied for having “N**** lips apparently”) But if he has some ancestry it’s probably not much. The man was born to two Maryland natives with German ancestors and even spoke it growing up. He is the spitting image of his father and honestly the features aren’t that unusual for the family. Considering his efforts towards unification of the sport and cranking absolute crushers, might as well be a part of the community 😂 S/O To the Sultan of Swat 🍻

If I could have seen him in person, then I would give my opinion!
I do believe that Babe Ruth was black. During the 1930's Major league baseball teams were secretly recruiting the best fair skin African American ballplayers to play in the major leagues. Romare Bearden was then an excellent negro league baseball player also fair skinned. He was approached by Boston to pitch for them. The only catch was that Romare was not to expose his black ancestry. Romare Bearden declined this National league team and went on to finish college and became a well known Collage artist during the Harlem Renaissance.
It shouldn't matter. White.. black.. green pink or blue.. he was one of the greatest of all time. I can't wait for the day we start identifying as one people. As Americans. We're going to fail if we don't.
They have a picture of his parents on his Wikipedia page (take that for what it’s worth). Moms is definitely some type of European (looking at hair and lips). But pops….I don’t know…could be a Chris Broussard fair skinned brother. So you never know
thats how i feel about Adam Clayton Powell too lol its mind blowing looking at him and knowing he was one of the most prolific civil rights leaders. especially looking at his descendants that are clearly caucasians from the mountains of caucuses 🤣
@@sabrinaphillips916 He admitted to his adopted daughter that he was actually her father by his mistress. The adopted daughter is dead, but she left children.
