Muhammad Ali RIP - He Was An American Hero, Not A Brash Black Man To Be Feared - Video Muhammad Ali RIP - He Was An American Hero, Not A Brash Black Man To Be Feared What bothers me about the passing of Muhammad Ali, is that he's described as "confident" and this coded language of fear of the strong, straight, alpha black male is going to contaminate television media. They don't get it. For me, now 53, and Muhammad Ali is the reason my media brand is called "Zennie62" - the 60s were an incredible decade of change that's not fully understood today.

Muhammad Ali Placed On Life Support - The Greatest - Video Muhammad Ali Placed On Life Support - The Greatest The sad news is that Muhammad Ali was placed on life support.

He talked against the Vietnam War, and did not go into The Draft. For me, Muhammad Ali was much more than boxing. He represented black self-determination and true American freedom. via IFTTT http://youtu.be/iebDBApDmx8
