Erskine has been a pivotal figure in Special Olympics’ history, and we are proud to partner with renowned filmmaker Ted Green to spread Erskine’s messages of friendship, inclusion, servant leadership and respect.
“The Best We’ve Got” takes a deep dive into Erskine’s upbringing and his legendary career with the Brooklyn Dodgers where he played alongside Jackie Robinson, the first African American professional athlete to break the color barrier. The film then takes viewers on Erskine’s most proud adventure, when he and his wife, Betty, had their son Jimmy, who was born with Down syndrome.
Special Olympics Indiana will host screenings at major locations throughout the state. For information on additional screenings, visit http://soind.org/ErskineFilm
