New partnership celebrates Indianapolis’ Black baseball heritage


INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indianapolis Indians has partnered with GANGGANG, an agency centered around equity and culture, to honor the history of Negro Leagues and Black baseball in Indianapolis.

The partnership includes revitalized imagery for representing the original Indianapolis Clowns and
Indianapolis ABCs – two historic Negro Leagues franchises in the Circle City. They’ll focus on educational tools and community outreach opportunities through five core principles: respectful representation, cultural education, authenticity through collaboration, understanding and empathy, and empowering impact.

Redesigned on-field hats, jerseys, and merchandise honoring the original franchises of both the ABCs and
Clowns will be launched in May in conjunction with a three-part web series highlighting Negro Leagues
history, current activations and outreach, and GANGGANG’s visual creation process.

“This is an effort to not only celebrate history but also protect history and heritage. It represents a very
important part of Indianapolis history,” said Alan Bacon, co-founder of GANGGANG. “There wouldn’t be
this evolution of baseball if it weren’t for these original creators that we get to celebrate and talk about.”
