On This Day In History: September 1st

"On September 1st, history was made. In 1939, Germany invaded Poland, sparking the beginning of World War II. In 1971, Roberto Clemente and the Pittsburgh Pirates broke barriers with Major League Baseball’s first all-Black starting lineup. And in 1985, explorers discovered the wreck of the Titanic, hidden beneath the Atlantic for over 70 years. Three powerful moments, one unforgettable day in history."
