Renewed calls to remove Texas Ranger statue at Globe Life Field
Local civil rights groups used Jackie Robinson Day to again urge the Texas Rangers to remove a controversial Texas Ranger statue inside Globe Life Field. The 12‑foot law enforcement figure was moved from Dallas Love Field to the ballpark earlier this year, sparking criticism from activists who say it represents a history of racial injustice. The renewed push comes as MLB marks a day dedicated to civil rights and inclusiveness.
