World without Joe Louis

[Spartacus Sully]

The Civil war was basically fought over money. If you really wanna get down to the root of it. NOT Uncle Tom's Cabin.

i never claimed any of that, only that it played an important part in unifying the north against slavery and that the book played a vital part in the war in the sense that it helped bring the north all to the same page on slavery.

he ducked jackson because that was the norm in america as well a s his manager was extremly racist.

as well im pretty sure i had read an article about jack blackburn having been one of sullivans close friends....seems weird for a racist....

Johnson and Sullivan actually became very friendly leading up to Johnson-Jeffries after a very rocky start.

And you call Jack Johnson racist?!?!?!?!? But you dont call John L. Sullivan racist? Upholding the double-standard any?

Johnson was not a racist either, he grew up with many white friends if you've read "Unforgivable blackness".

I know he wasn't Jab. Yes, I did see Unforgivable Blackness, and read it. What kind of Jack Johnson fan would I be without having it on DVR(That joker takes up alot of space, but I refuse to delete it. )

Did Joe Louis set a good example nearly beating a woman to death?

When did he nearly beat a woman to death? I wasn't aware he even knocked a woman unconscious let alone had to call the ambulance to revive her lifeless body. And how does hitting 1 woman over shadow everything he did to help his race and his nation?
