Clemente had been involved in relief efforts and already had arranged a number of shipments, but had learned that supplies were being commandeered by the Nicaraguan military and were not reaching victims. (2/8) https://t.co/yi4kS8dVIJ — PolitiTweet.org

Forty-eight years ago today, on New Year’s Eve 1972, the Great One, Roberto Clemente, perished in a plane crash off the coast of Puerto Rico. Clemente was accompanying a shipment of supplies to earthquake victims in Nicaragua. (1/8) https://t.co/jDx4z0CMD5 — PolitiTweet.org

Clemente resolved to accompany the next shipment, confident that profiteers would not steal the supplies with him present. Unbeknownst to Clemente or the pilot, the cargo plane had suffered a runway accident less than a month before, damaging two propellers and an engine. (3/8) https://t.co/4gNCm44qdG — PolitiTweet.org
