You also have to consider history, back then black people were treated like second class citizens, denied simple rights and it wasway before the civil rights movement. Now why would any black person fight for a country like that.
Mayweather needs to quit claiming tbe what do u do for ppl outside of boxing clearly nothing ali fought for ppls rights that's what made him so real n didn't hand pick his fights like mayweather so Ali is clearly tbe
In the words of the great man himself "Why should they ask me to put on a uniform and go 10,000 miles from home and drop bombs and bullets on brown people in Vietnam while so-called Negro people in Louisville are treated like dogs and denied simple human rights? No I’m not going 10,000 miles from home to help murder and burn another poor nation simply to continue the domination of white slave masters of the darker people the world over. This is the day when such evils must come to an end. I have been warned that to take such a stand would cost me millions of dollars. But I have said it once and I will say it again. The real enemy of my people is here. I will not disgrace my religion, my people or myself by becoming a tool to enslave those who are fighting for their own justice, freedom and equality. If I thought the war was going to bring freedom and equality to 22 million of my people they wouldn't have to draft me, I'd join tomorrow. I have nothing to lose by standing up for my beliefs. So I’ll go to jail, so what? We’ve been in jail for 400 years."
The next time I eat kfc , watermelon, cheesecake, bananas, tacos, or any type of food I will eat it in Ali's memory.
