A brief clip from the film Freedom Road, starring Muhammad Ali as Gideon Jackson, a former slave from South Carolina and later US Senator in Washington DC, fighting for greater freedom in the 1870s during Reconstruction.
I am a dear friend to some of Ali's family and they are great people .Ali well the most loving kind giving and caring man and he love the Jewish people.
He plays a slave with his head raised ! What God has exalted can no one lower. He loved everyone and stood for his people. There is nothing wrong with that. I am white and respect him and love him. Honour to whom honor is due. Would be proud if he were white. But even so, he is the most beautiful Boxer and charismatic men ! R.I.P Champion
My father was the man on Ali's left arm. R.I.P. George I. Robinson. He allowed our family the opportunity to meet Mr. Ali. I remember I made him laugh. I was so taken I couldn't even tell the man his name when he asked me!!! Lol! R.I.P. to the GOAT!!!
0:24 " I´m just a simple man"??? he was THE GREATEST :-) Came here cause Howard Fast wrote the novel of this mini-serie .At the same time "Roots" was aired
My cousin dated Ali in the early years, she said if she knew he was going to be famous,she would have stuck with him haha. I always had a secret crush on him when I was young.
Just spotted Ron "o Neal (of SUPERFLY fame) with that handlebar mustache! I've never understood why this film is rarely shown, or not even on DVD (as far as I know) even though Ali starred in it (it was his only real acting role in a film.) Haven't seen this since it was first aired--would love to see it again.
Its going on in my life for real,I found $100 prop dollar bill at Walmart on Ashley Rd in CLT NC! Caught they sadistic ass,bunch of Jezabbelle spirited assigned demons!Naboth death still being avenged!!! God 🌙 nite!
