Sports: Breaking Records, Breaking Barriers

Through August 20, 2006, the National Constitution Center hosts an inspiring exhibition that focuses on 35 athletes, including Jackie Robinson, and issues such as racial integration, women's changing roles, and the emergence of sports celebrities. The exhibition also highlights the effect athletes' personal victories, both on and off the field, exert on the nation's consciousness.
