A longtime Braves fan, Carter noted he was at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium the night Aaron hit his iconic home run.

Liles/Atlanta Braves via AP Pool)ATLANTA โ Brian Snitker choked back tears as he remembered Hank Aaronโs affection for those who didnโt possess his unparalleled talent on the baseball field. During his post-playing career running the Atlanta Braves farm system, the Hammer had a penchant for looking beyond the canโt-miss prospects. Noting the 10 Baseball of Famers who have died in the past year, Manfred said Aaron โbelongs on our sportโs Mount Rushmore. โThe reason Iโm here today is because of Hank Aaron,โ Snitker said, pausing to maintain his composure. โHank was very instrumental in me becoming an Atlanta Brave,โ Jones said.

Success of Ginsburg film inspires CNN look at John Lewis
FILE - U.S. Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., describes the events of Bloody Sunday during a visit to the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Ala., Sunday, March 7, 2010. The film "John Lewis: Good Trouble" will debut on CNN on Sunday night. The unexpected commercial success of the โRBGโ film in theaters two years ago had CNN looking for another contemporary leader whose life could be seen in historical terms. Porter finished the film late last fall, just before learning that Lewis had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It offers a deeper dive into Lewis' life for people who became intrigued about his story around the time he died.
