Normally, I like to try and put up people that are lesser known or unknown, but I feel like these two people don't get enough credit given all the shit they accomplished in their lives.

I know he was not born here in America. But I feel even if your not born here, once you come here your subjecated to the treatment all melainated people often go through.

Black soldiers probably got the rawest deal of all of us. That might seem crazy, but I really think its true. Imagine fighting in a conflict as brutal as WWI or WWII and not even getting recognition for it let along paid or benefits.

I love the way he would break down the bullshit they tried to throw at him in his interviews
