- Muhammad Ali talks about racial integration in USA; November 1971 on Parkinson, a British television chat show.

If only white people werent so obsessed with hating blacks.
Someone This is a blatant lie but i’m not suprised.
Someone Replace black american history with white american and see how racist black people look
Hans Ew he had an actual struggle unlike cry baby white boys who go through no racism
Thumos Aeterna What on earth are you talking about
I miss the good old days when people could speak the truth with no fear.
God bless you Ali, rest in peace.
Like trump and kanye and then they get hatted on by people like you
No, even then only a black man or woman was given latitude to speak about race. A white back then could not speak that way publicly.
I agree with his views, he was one of the few Black people who didn't seek approval from Whites and was proud of his race.
SOMETHING WHITES CAN LEARN. You don't need to keep seeking validation and approval from Black people. You can be proud to be who you are.
Nevertheless, if a White person said what he did, he'd be lambasted by the SPLC as a hatemonger.
We use to listen to other's point of view.
We may have disagreed. but we allowed people to say their piece. we use to have discussions.
Ali spoke his mind at all costs & WHITE RACIST hated that! He spoke where all other BLACKS were too scared, therefore, Ali in their eyes was considered a racist. Wrong answer! He wanted equality like MLK, but in his religious beliefs for BLACKS!
Muhammad Ali was definetly one of the most outspoken and entertaining sports figures of all time.
That Made Him the Greatest !!!!!!!!!!!!!
❤Precisely. A wide AWAKE black man. He has a knowledge of SELF and LOVE of SELF and KIND.
As they say , love is blind and marriage is an eye opener .
Hahaha good one
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
❤😂 HAHAHA I have NEVER heard that but its TRUE a harsh REALITY you find out for YOURSELF.
They would put Muhammad Ali in jail for saying this now.
Not in jail but on a blacklist. He wouldn't be invited to mainstream TV shows anymore, after this appearance.
Yeah if he was white
This was 1971. There was no political correctness back then.
Where those views belong.
What about the Hayes code and other acts of censorship? There was plenty of PC behavior in the past, probably worse than now.
Imagine the freedom in saying exactly what's on your mind.
There was no freedom both he and malcolm x faced these kind of social inquisitions everytime they did a interview.
Look at how Parkinson is trying to shut him down.
1984 is being put in place but there was backlash even back .
In our f*cked up culture people call you a racist if you dare to tell the truth about how you really feel.
You have the Freedom of speech. Yet there is polítics and people who slander and attack you for it. Only black people to he honest can talk about their race or any other race and not be slandered. If black people did a public speech riot that the city approved no other race would interfere and let them speak. Yet if KKK did it then they would interfere in it. Now if a speech is not hurting anyone. Why can't white people have a right to a free protest without blacks interfering. The reason why is because the blacks are chasing after whites and being ignorant. This is a invent that can be proven.
Don’t have to imagine. Say it how you feel.
But have common sense.
@@amina9935 What do you mean by common sense? Do you mean in public do not speak your culture basically because other races would feel different. To be honest there is no way not to open up your mouth and speak. It is only different people that don't allow them to speak because they are different.
He speaking his truth!! No one can ever minimize or deny it!!
He’s a racist in today’s world. No one can ever minimise or deny that.
*The Truth
❤absolutely CORRECT and true. When TRUTH comes FALSEHOOD VANISHES.
He spoke "The" truth.
The truth is, if his ancestors hadn't mixed up, he wouldn't have lived to become one of the greatest boxers of all time

"I wanna be with my own. I love my people. I don't hate nobody."
I knew he was smart but I never new what an intelligent, independent deep thinker he was. One of the most eloquent anti Multicultural arguments I've ever heard. He doesn't hate others. He just loves his culture and wants to preserve it and recognizes and accepts as natural that others would feel the same about their own cultures. Very wise.
Race*
This is nonsense. I'm Black, My son is mixed raced. He is the same complexion as Muhammed Ali!! Muhammed was mixed raced and knew it. Here we have a mixed-raced person stating races shouldn't mix.
Its good when a Black man says that but if White man says that hes suddenly Hitler.
Flower8 You’re right. He’s also confusing species with race. Blue birds, Red birds and eagles are different species. They mate within their own species. Blacks and whites are within the same species called human. They can mate with one another too.

One of his best knockouts
“In my own life, there were places I couldn’t go, places I couldn’t eat. I won a gold medal representing the United States at the Olympic Games, and when I came home to Louisville, I still got treated like a n--.”
I think this was from where it started.. he hated racist and didn't want anything to do with them.. but not all white people are racist, but the ones that are, we all can't stand them
One of his worst. He was wrong on this one.
@Big Brother eroding the majority demographic? Can you explain what you mean, it makes no sense. There is nothing marginalising about saying that humans of different races have equal abilities and opportunities
oxyharmonic I’m against extremes so ill say it like this...if this extreme keeps up, in a couple generations there will be no black families to give reparations to but there will still be in equality and a lack of identity issues. We cant all live extremes, our cultural sense is our source of sensibility and many of our cultural differences sharply contradict each other. This notion that the stability of a mixed/interracial family without leaning on one side of stability (since we are talking about the Dichotomy of black an white) is just plain false in most applications it only works in a few isolated Scenarios. Other than that relationships shouldn’t entirely be moved by racial fetishes.
As of today, June 10, 2021, 20K likes to 709 dislikes. Underrated comment OP; this is definitely one of his best knockout.

There is nothing wrong of sticking with your own kind, culture, and identity. Multiculturalism is not for everyone and should not be forced upon someone that doesn’t want it.
Except he clearly seems to imply racial integration is wrong/unnatural/undesirable. This isn't about whether it's okay to want to be with someone who understands your culture and your identity, this is about him essentially saying blacks and whites essentially aren't "meant" to be together
@@kenmken We aren't lol. He's right.
Multiculturalism is for no one
@@Bob-td1lv How stupid and backwards. When you have the audacity to think that then don't blame anyone for being racist. Unless you're white yourself then I'm sure you understand it quite well!
Edit: ie if you're black and you seriously think that, understand that the white people who also think blacks aren't meant to mix with their race are exactly the white people who are racist and bigoted towards you, so if you hold the same worldview towards them, it would be hypocritical to be anti racist. And if you're white well then you're likely a white supremacist to think your race needs to be kept pure. The whole idea of preserving your race's purity can mostly only come from a place of bigotry, intolerance, and considering that your race is superior to others and shouldn't be diluted
@@kenmken what if we dont think we are superior? What if we want our characteristics and cultures to flow with time¿

Vlad I am Black and do totally agree to you! The world should learn to appreciate diversity and selflove and respect. Then we can better coexist on this planet. I try to wake up my brothers to know where they belong. It's not Europe.
Eric Bay Or how about we just stop talking about race and stop crying about it over every damn thing. Particularly blacks play this game a lot more than whites. Us blacks do need to come together and better present ourselves. I’m tire of the negative image of blacks and it needs to stop from us. Nothing wrong with having Ali mindset. But it’s stupid to say that’s how people will get along lol people think differently so that’s not going to work. Just accept who they are and who they with. You don’t got to like it.

Ali was ignorant then. He said what was predicated by signs of the times then. He would have changed in today's world. He was a black freedom fighter full of anger for what the whites did to blacks. With the progress the world has made today on seeing everyone as equal, i can tell you that his views would have changed. This statement was racist and its a fact

If I was a man back in the early to mid 1900s, I woulda been calling gay folks derogatory slurs, but since I was raised in the 2000s with the internet, I can choose for myself what's right or wrong and I don't have to listen to the propaganda my parents teach me.
Would you be okay with a white man possessing those same qualities?
@@ziinx5899 absolutely..
I don't know man..If Tom Brady said this there would be hell to pay.
ALI WAS A MAN OF MANY TALENTS. he was funny, he was articulate, he was insightful, he was a great boxer, no one can be as confrontational as him or disagreeable as him and still make a point with his disarming smile that makes the disagreer smile back. ALI is unmatched in so many ways.
If a white boxer stood up today and said, to a public forum, _"My enemy is black people."_ what do you think would happen to him? All the hypocrites in these comments would be calling for his head and he'd be banned from the sport of boxing forever.
@@TonyEnglandUK Ali made the statement you referred to in 1968 and the above interview was in 1971. What do You think was happening prior to those years when Ali was growing up, during those years - and still happening around the time of those statements? Racism...who started it? White people...white supremacists foolishly thinking that they're superior to all the Races - but especially Black people. Hell, the government was against Black people with Jim Crow Laws and the like...so Ali wasn't saying anything that he wasn't seeing, experiencing or living. KKK was thriving, white cops beating the life out of Blacks, Black people being killed at random - even CHILDREN - why? For the simple and only reason that they were Black. Ali had the guts to say things how he saw it drawing from what was happening in the society that he was living in at the time. Where and why was JFK killed? Why was his brother Robert killed? Why was Abraham Lincoln killed? Apart from killing Blacks, Whites were even killing their own if they felt that these Presidents were trying to give Blacks equal rights. A common happening then was for Whites to rape their own white women and pin it on a Black man. Do you have any idea of the number of Black men who have been thrown in jail - and died there for crimes against white people that they did not commit? Crimes that White men committed? I could go on and on... So don't you sit here and judge Ali (RIP) by what he was saying without knowing the context and backdrop against which his statements were framed. We're in the 21st century and there are still racial currents running in the US. Do you know of the number of Blacks who have been killed in this century due to skin colour? What they are still experiencing inspite of things looking like it's ok? If you, white boy/man, had to go through what Blacks have experienced, you wouldn't have been around to say, 'idgaf!' But one day, believe it or not, both Blacks - and WHITES - will be standing at the judgement seat of God who will judge both, not by SKIN COLOUR but by the colour of their SOULS! Peace ✌🏿

He was an idiot that changed his name to a slave trading/using owner called Muhammad (the 'prophet') and his last name Ali was also a slave trader/user.

It is nature to be with your own
We our are own no matter what colour, different species of the same animal is completely different. Its like a black Labrador and a white Labrador.
All humans are our own kind. He is incorrect in his analogy. Race is non existent because we are one people. Animals in nature that can have offspring together do integrate. Dogs, cats, horses and some kinds of birds do act as one species and don’t have a natural concept of segregation. You think a horse knows a different breed from each other? Nope!
Juice you obviously don’t understand what you’re talking about. If a human wants to have sex with any other human they are a weak, inferior human. In nature you mate with the best people available to you for the best genes. If you want to be a good example of evolution you are very selective about your breeding and once you have found a good partner you have as many kids as you can with that person to ensure survival of your bloodline.
A.S Bernard that’s not true at all animals sticking together has to do with being the same not being able to breed together. Lion and tigers can breed together but see what happens when you leave them together.
A.S Bernard also you’re dead wrong if you think horses can’t tell horse breeds and horse subspecies apart.
Back when you could say something like this and have the audience applaud you for the honesty. If somebody said these same exact words today the audience would gasp and would be afraid to clap out of fear of being judged by their peers.
It’s fine when a black person says this. But when a white person thinks or feels the exact same way, they get crucified.
Especially if a white man said it.

@@TonyEnglandUK How is it "disgustingly racist"? He's talking about personal preference: As a Black American, he loves his Black American wife. He's not trying to promote policy or even a widespread ideology. You'd also be wise to recognize that much of this interview resulted from the 1971 Supreme Court decision (Swann vs Charlotte Mecklenberg Board of Education) which ruled that bussing could be forced upon school children as a tool to integrate schools. Blacks and Whites alike recognized that this ridiculously naive attempt at forcing integration would actually backfire into profound animosity between the races. (It did.) In context of the actual current events in America (neatly omitted from the earlier lead-in to this conversation), what Ali is saying here becomes a lot less inflammatory.

May God (Allah) Bless Mohammed Ali's kind and generous Soul!
Ali wasn't preaching hate nor is he preaching superiority. In fact Ali is saying be proud of your race. Everyone else seems to be. Parkinson was correct when he said it's society's fault for making interracial couples/families not proud to publically be seen. They'd catch hell for it back in the day. If you fall in love with someone outside of your race then that's fine but if you're with someone who is outside of your race because you dislike your own then there's something wrong there.

It's not so much 'society's fault' for mixed race couples being seen poorly, but instead a product of biology.
Ali was a beast of wisdom... I love watching him talk
Sastré he only needed to know one thing...colonizers ain’t shit.
Agree
Agreed
Wisdom no, entertainment yes. Don't mix up people like Martin Luther King and Muhammad Ali. One is wisdom other is an entertainer ala a showman.
It is like he being on the ring and giving the interviewer some intelectual knockout.
Now that IS true "freedom of soeech." That's his honest and straighforward opinion. He did NOT water down his opinions. He called em as he saw em.
I am second generation American, my dad is from Mexico and my Chicana mom is from LA but spent half her life in Mexico. I understand perfectly what Ali says about the understanding between 2 people of different backgrounds. My wife is from Mexico. While my wife grew up in Mexico in the Mexican culture I was raised in the states with a more Chicano culture. Even us with very similar cultures to each other find it difficult to relate in certain aspects, nothing wrong with it, just nature. I often wonder if sone things would be easier had she been American.
Ok, but isn't it true that the modern Mexican person usually is the product of ethnic mixing? Part Spanish part indigenous. In fact most Latin people are mixed, correct? And none the worse for it.
It’s not even about race it’s about culture foo
@@kevinsager5054And yet there’s an identity crisis. Latin America is the perfect example that race mixing doesn’t solve cultural differences and the problems associated with it. There is prejudice based on color. Latino countries with a larger black population also suffer discrimination in their nation. Indigenous people that didn’t mix with the Spanish or Europeans are also marginalized from the greater mestizo population like the ones here in the States. You even have racist whites or woke whites in countries like Mexico 😂. You have whites that wish they were brown or brown people that wish that were white. Then the “Chicano” population here in the States adopts the African American culture as their own while simultaneously discriminating blacks and make fun of anyone who they perceive as acting “white” if they have certain political beliefs or like country music lol. Chicanos also tend to clash with real Mexicans at times at work based on who “works better” or the Mexicans be dissing Chicanos if they don’t speak fluent Spanish, etc. Going back to old Mexico, then there’s the rejection of Spain when in reality the culture is actually more Spanish than indigenous. The only thing that remained in the mestizo population from the indigenous ancestry was some of the food, but everything else like music, religion, and language is from Europe or even African. The biggest lie out there is that the white man is the creator of racism, everyone can be a racist. So Muhammad had his preferences which is better than pretending to go along to get along.
People today and in this comment section can't understand just because people don't want to date outside their race doesn't mean they can't respect and get along with people from other races. A lot of people from all different races prefer to only date their own race and still respect and get along with everyone just fine. I don't understand why this concept is so hard for people to get. Many people calling ali stupid. Like if you think everyone that doesn't agree with everything everyone says in 2023 is stupid or racist that's actually extremely racist not everyone has to agree with what everyone thinks is right in 2023.
When 2 people from 2 entirely different backgrounds and cultures meet and create another life - this is later a common problem for the environment (sadly saying) - I am mixed myself, my father was olive dark skinned (Middle East) and my mom is white blonde from Eastern Europe - that made me from my earliest age an Outcast, not to mention about religion aspects, culture differences, etc.
He is speaking the truth. This video is AMAZING. Any intelligent and educated person would agree with his comments.
I think the swedish government should watch this!
We must fight with this leftists or we, our countries, culture, nations, races and civilizations just disappear.
Christcucks who want to flood our countries with black and brown christians should watch this again and again and again. A Muslim man speaking the truth!
@The Conservative they want to fight us moron
The Conservative His speach is anti-Islam !!
@@severusfloki5778 how lolllll, clarify
All people need icons and leaders like him
If a white person talked like him he would be called a racist
Ali's comments reflect both the times and his faith at that time in his life. He softened his views as time went on. But make no mistake, interracial relationships were really challenging then. And let's not kid ourselves, it has it's challenges still.
He DIDN'T change that is just PROPAGANDA from people USING Ali for THEMSELVES.
JUST remember ALI HATED NO ONE. That is FACT. America TRIED to USE him he said NO NO NO..
Back in the day when you could talk TRUTH...
Now welcome to days of PC.
You can tell by the nervous laughter of the audience and the spaghetti spilling of the host that PC was already in full force being deployed at every campus back then. Just look at the shit the hippies believed in the 60s. PC is older than most people on the internet.
Only if you were black
LtSerge everything he said in this interview is *the truth*
Just like when LeBron James said he loved his beautiful strong BLACK wife and all of these girls threw fits in the comments asking why he felt the need to say black. Its like, get over it. Who cares??? If a white man prefers skinny, white blonds its okay, but if a black man says his loves his black wife, its a problem. It shouldn't be a problem for either.
One thing Ali forgot to mention is what would happen if you forced a buzzard and a eagle to live among each other.
Look at these comments and the thumbs up for this video. Most people agree and know he's right!
Have you never heard of an echo chamber?
He’s wrong and his ideas are against our religion of Islam. He’s saying this because he was facing racism and a black woman would be his best bet because they understand each other the most. Also he finds black women the most beautiful.
@@FishLord66 Are you not muslim? You should know internet dummy
@@FishLord66 You’re wrong lmaooo
@@FishLord66 yup
I love Ali, because he could say all that he said without being a racist. He wasn't a racist. He represented his race, but there were lessons for all races. He was great at speaking, and he never changed.
I agree with the great Muhammad Ali.
It's important that we take the positive aspects from different cultures and investigate the negative ones. Being within the same culture can be comfortable but it reduces the likelihood of improving that culture.
I believe in what he says, I don't think there should be forced segregation or forced integration against whites only like we have had for decades.
He is absolutely right
He is absolutely not.

Truth is so refreshing to hear
It's weird that the audience is laughing
Tom T Laughter is often used as a defense mechanism
Yea, it's nervous laughter
This is England that is white disprivilege or is that colored privilege?
This is England Same. I’m a white spanish person.
This is England Don’t you know? Only white people get called racist for saying these things. Any race can say these things and there are no problems. I admit that it does make it easier to spot the real racists, however. But hey, push back like they do and maybe you will be able to say what you want one day again. When white people stop caring about if they are called a racist and push back will be when white people will overcome this all and stop walking on egg shells.
According to the comments-if you agree with Ali here, then you are racist. If you disagree with Ali here, it’s because you’re racist.
Basically lol.
Or you're listening to the word of a man from a different time, it's the 1970's, he's a boxer not a philosophical genius or even a man of proper education. He speaks to the time he lived in, with the circumstances he was raised on. We evolve, we grow and for every Ali there was a Martin Luther king who spoke very different words. If you agree then your minds belongs in a different time, if disagree it means that the work people who put into making sure people like me don't have to hide our ethnicity has not been in vain. He was an amazing boxer and, humanitarian but he was nothing more then entertainment.
Not true. If you're white and you agree with Ali, you're branded a racist and a nazi. If you're non white, then you're just standing up for yourself as an "oppressed minority."
Ali was being stupid and racist as hell, KKK think exactly like this way which is disgusting, respect for what hes done with boxing etc but what he said was wrong
@Dfghg Vbhhn idc who u are or what time your from, its racist, u might as well excuse the KKK for all the racism, same with the nazis
One of a kind! I have two sports heroes: Ali and Roberto Clemente. One was very outspoken and one very quiet, but both were great humanitarian.
Wow this is new to me. Amazing. ❤
This rubbed me wrong years ago when I first heard Ali say this. Now that I’m older though, I understand the exact point he was making, as well as the host’s. It took Ali a while to get to his point but it’s a valid assessment of the extra obstacles that comes with interracial relationships - particularly cultural differences and nuances that is developed throughout a lifetime. “Culture shock” is real and some interracial relationships can’t find common ground with how to conduct themselves. Ali’s point was cultural differences, while the host was viewing the matter from a broader one species standpoint.
Yeah Ali looks at it through a narrow view and the other guy knows history Ali no offense doesn’t if he did he wouldn’t be Muslim
his daughter is married to a white man ali himself had european ancestry hes talking absolute waffle here same shit the klan preach he changed his mind as he got older
Strange… I find more in common with beautiful young Filipina women than any western white woman and I am classed as an English white man. Ali sounds like a total idiot here I don’t care if he was an above average sportsman. He’s spreading hatred pure and simple.
New Mason , exactly what Dr Verwoerd the president of South Africa said in the 60 s with a seperate culture development system witch the whole world crusified him and assassinated him for , today we know he was far ahead of the world with his thinking , the proof is their today to see , R I P Dr Verwoerd

What a shame his daughter marrying a white man...I guess his words could not reach his own family members..
"Aint in love with one woman to go thru hell, aint no one woman that good." ~ Ali
Muhammad Ali was the greatest and I believe in his message as being 100% truth. But as me being white and said it I'd be labeled Racist
Blacks were so much suppressed those days that they felt ashamed and would have lost their pride and identity if heroes like Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali had not intervened.
Regarding the freedom to speak your heart out; it was even more difficult for a black American (it is even today), but Muhammad Ali was mentally strong too. And risked himself here also.
A real champion of boxing, blacks and “others” and a real human being.
He indeed continues to be World Champion ❤
This man was VERY AHEAD of his time, we need more men from any of their different and unique races to speak up about this. All respect given to Ali for saying real shit
This speech was regressive. America is a multicultural society and a melting pot. Races are mixing more than ever and this trend will exacerbate within the next few decades. Segregation is part of the past, where it belongs
@@TJ-fv3vt I agree. Absolutely nothing wrong with having a bi cultural family...

Impossible for a white man to say this today. But I agree 100%
People need to say it what are you so worried about this is exactly what the white and black community needs and there would be far less problems
@Don't make me laugh Its because the word "racism" has come to mean "when a black person is the victim". It's about time we stood up for OUR white race without being made to feel guilty for it, too.
@Don't make me laugh Muhammad Ali once said "White people are my enemy".
Imagine what would happen to a white boxer saying "Black people are my enemy".
@Don't make me laugh because what ali said was true cry about it😂
@@TonyEnglandUK Wtf yt supremacist
Ali was pointing out the reality that th host tried to intellectually pave over..... That reality can be worked out, even straddled obliquely if people are willing to put th work into it, but th differences r still there, still visceral and very much a thing that society is yet at odds with..... And even if you can make it work with society, there are nuances at th individual level that hav to b acknowledged fully, if any kind of meaningful relationship is to thrive.
Thas what Ali ws, i think, interring in a vivid and supremely colorful way.
Bless his soul, that man had clarity.
I wonder how people with black/white parents feel watching Ali talk down about the way they look and their parents' love for each other. He says he wants to be with his own, fine, that's his choice but here he is judging other peoples' choices by his own preferences and calling them idiots if they don't do what he prefers.
Also, the birds he names are different species. Humans are one species.
There is nothing wrong with judging other people's choices.
Thank you. An intelligent person in the comment section. Finally.
To further your point,
Some pigeons have white feathers. Some pigeons have brown feathers. It’s a slight genetic difference in the same species, not a whole other species, just like skin color in humans.
And Feather color won’t stop them from mating together.
So yes, again, in agreement to this comment, Ali’s bird analogy is idiotic and flawed to the point of failure. You don’t know biology if you don’t understand why what he said is wrong.
Damn Dan Bull actually being based. Nice to see you in a more personal light. Big fan
As a “mixed” person, thank you!
@@icechingu there is something wrong with generalizing racial dynamics. It is called racism, and is equivalent to a racist saying black men are intrinscially dangerous because of crime stats.
Ali speaks the truth that many Whites wish they could say. It DOES NOT make one a 'racist' to not want the individual racial and ethnic groups to 'mix' and 'integrate' (miscegenation) and wipe out their individual traits, cultures and customs. The Japanese have a right to stay Japanese, the Nigerians have a right to stay Nigerian, and the English have a right to stay English.
Why would you want to 'mix' all the racial/ethnic groups and cultures together if you respect 'diversity'? All that achieves is destroying 'diversity' and making everybody the same.
Of course, its Whites in particular who are told they should 'mix' with non-whites and create mixed raced populations to replace ourselves, no other group is forced such propaganda to do this. (Think of the the White female/Black male couple constantly pushed in TV, commercials and films).
And who is it who owns and runs the media? You know the answer.
bish0p2004 that's plain bs. Every one is responsible for this bs. Not just one race. We all have strengths and faults. The beauty is in accepting hose strengths and faults.
+JamieONeil exactly. Its not racist if YOU want to stay with your race It is racist however if you are trying to tell other people THEY have to stay with their own race.

I think he was referring to the cultural clash in an inter-ethnic relationship. The same one he was referring to with the Chinese man and Puerto Rican woman example.

his daughter married a white man they had a mixed race son...his mixed race grandson has to listen to this shite today.
@@petergleave3198 I don’t know too much but I really hope Ali changed his views. The message he preached in this video is entirely against Islam, and Ali is a devout Muslim.
Maybe in the context that he was living in, it would’ve felt as if white and black people were too different to each other to ever feel the love that they’d feel for their own. Perhaps that’s what inspired these views, but times have changed.
No he’s not. He’s spreading his believes and ppl eat it up cause he is a ducking legend. That it. Does not make half of it less bullshit.

Omg he seem like he's a great man!!! Never seen his interviews before!!! I wish everyone was like Ali!!! RIP hunny!!!!
Actually he wasn't.. he truly only cared about himself. And he had a lot of hate towards white racist but he was intolerant because white people and black people do fall in love, Asians and Latin people do fall in love.. and many have long lasting relationships.
@@pazzodi3 i see ur point lol. Ur right
@@sylviaslydavis405 as a Native American all I can say is mixing with other tribes or people is part of human coexistence. Nomadic tribes which were many, maybe the majority of indigenous society, would many times agree to marry the other tribe's women in order to intermix and see each other as brother tribes. Mixing with other people that are different from oneself is the best way to live in peace, intolerance is the easiest way to reach war and hate. If I marry you and we have children, I would never let harm come upon your family nor my family. I am bound to protect both as are my people with your people and your people with mine. That's how to create love and peace.
@@pazzodi3 Yes, people of different backgrounds do fall in love and do have long lasting relationships but statistically they also have the highest failure rate.
