Best Answer

I saw a SportsCentury piece on ESPN where Aaron said he received death threats and racist mail when he was about to break Babe Ruth's career home run record. He obviously dealt with the bigotry very well to have become as great a Baseball player as he did. Click on the 'Hank Aaron and Racism' link underneath this answer to read an article from ESPN about Hank and some of the racism he had to deal with.
