Foreman was and is still proud to be an American! Screw those bastards who raised their fists and "Dr." Harry Edwards (that's one sumbitch I'll kick square in the balls if I ever have the pleasure of meeting him). Those 2 track stars stood up and where were they once "The movement" was through with them? 1 had to work at a car wash and the other went with "Dr." Edwards giving speeches about god knows what....and the Black socialist movement.....ok, we're not in the let's get it on part of the site, I'm gonna chill out here......AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN RAISE THE SAME FIST!!!! Which to me is the TRUEST symbol of unity they represented.

Also why get mad at someone for being patriotic? Sign of the times I guess.

I HIGHLY doubt Big George was worried about money when he won the gold, I don't think he was like "What will they think of me"

Were minorities being treated poorly yes, but that was YEARS in the making and much like WWII was made by bad decisions in WWI the civil rights movement was due to poor ideas in Reconstruction after The US Civil War, it made the south bitter and rightfully so. I'm not defending them for being racist but saying you would do something like that too if a minority population was suddenly put above you and if you had land and money they were taken away from you
