In that case please enlighten me and give me a history lesson relevant to why Ali originally had a slavers name and not the name of his parents (Clay) as I`m obviously missing the point and haven`t got a clue about what you and the other bloke are trying to say...
I already said that had they changed their names before Ali was born then he wouldn`t have had Clay as a surname but one of their choosing but as they didn`t change their names he got his surname from them (whether or not they originally got the surname from some slavers is beside the point as Ali got the surname Clay from his parents and wasn`t given it by slavers).
Please give me a history lesson though as there must be something I don`t know and am arguing a point that doesn`t matter.
Oh and why we are on the subject of history, wasn`t it the British who got slavery and slave trading abolished so get off your high horses with your black militant crap and stop thinking every non black fcuker (i.e white) is against you and black folk have been so persecuted throughout history because you aren`t the only ones who have had a hard time of it.
Before you try and play the racist card my grandmother was Jewish, I am married to an Asian, I have a 10 year old daughter from a previous relationship in Sierra Leone (Freetown funnily enough where I believe the black folk returned to Africa when slavery was abolished and hence the name Freetown) so I couldn`t care less about race, creed, religion, culture etc as my own background is a right old hodge podge.
Please though, give me a History lesson as I`m obviously a thick fcuker and as dense as a Brazillian rain forrest and you are such an intellectual whizz.
