The historical past of 18th and Vine in Kansas City - jazz and baseball

The legacy of the past connects to the future with just a walk around the corner from America's national Negro Leagues Baseball Museum (NLBM) to the Kansas City Urban Youth Academy (KCUYA). Bob Kendrick, president of the NLBM, can make that connection as easily as he walks from the museum in the heart of Kansas City's Historic 18th and Vine district to the academy, located – literally – in the museum's backyard. Find out what it means to have the KCUYA mere blocks from where the National Negro League was founded in 1920.
