"Rings as true today"?
I don't think it's always easy being black in 2017, but I'm fairly certain it's a hell of a lot easier than it was 165 years ago.
Collins asked: “You don’t think that we can ever get along?”
“I know whites and blacks cannot get along; this is nature,” Ali replied. That was why he liked George Wallace, the segregationist Alabama governor who was then running for president.
Collins wasn’t sure he’d heard right. “You like George Wallace?”
“Yes, sir,” said Ali. “I like what he says. He says Negroes shouldn’t force themselves in white neighborhoods, and white people shouldn’t have to move out of the neighborhood just because one Negro comes. Now that makes sense.”
This was not some inexplicable aberration. It reflected a hateful worldview that Ali, as a devotee of Elijah Muhammad and the segregationist Nation of Islam, espoused for years. At one point, he even appeared before a Ku Klux Klan rally. It was “a hell of a scene,” he later boasted — Klansmen with hoods, a burning cross, “and me on the platform,” preaching strict racial separation. “Black people should marry their own women,” Ali declaimed. “Bluebirds with bluebirds, red birds with red birds, pigeons with pigeons, eagles with eagles. God didn’t make no mistake!”
In 1975, amid the frenzy over the impending “Thrilla in Manila,” his third title fight with Joe Frazier, Ali argued vehemently in a Playboy interview that interracial couples ought to be lynched. “A black man should be killed if he’s messing with a white woman,” he said. And it was the same for a white man making a pass at a black woman. “We’ll kill anybody who tries to mess around with our women.” But suppose the black woman wanted to be with the white man, the interviewer asked. “Then she dies,” Ali answered. “Kill her too.”
BLM is still being ruled by the white man.nope. why would he? where else can a caucasian child grow up to be 100% African American, and push forth lies about his home country?
Shaun who????
He must REALY hate himselfAn outspoken advocate of BLM, and a self-proclaimed black guy:
The dude is obviously very, very black. I cannot imagine the racist taunts he suffered growing up.
Oh, and the birth certificate issue? He admits to having a white mother, but claims to be bi-racial. "King says that his biological father was black and that the white man listed on his birth certificate was not his actual father."
Uhhh, yeah. Sure.
All lives matter!
THAT - and while we joke about this being racist - is incitive and diminishes the message of BLM. Of course all lives matter, but "right now" we're discussing black lives.
