Muhammad Ali may have thrown a deadly punch back in the day, but many of his famous and most memorable blows came courtesy of his quick wit.
In this 1971 interview with legendary British TV host Michael Parkinson, Ali’s tongue stung like a bee, outlining why he doesn’t like the oversimplified ‘not all white people are racist’ argument.
This is Huffington Post‘s take on the video:
Allies are obviously appreciated and vital to stopping racial injustice, but Ali’s words are still a pretty powerful reminder of the reality of being black in America. It’s pretty amazing, if unfortunate, that over 40 years later his words still resonate.
