Thursday 1/28/10

IN CLASS:
Today we started dabbling in our upcoming research project on "Champions." After doing some brainstorming about what makes a champion and who is a real champion, we began viewing segments of the Mohammad Ali documentary When We Were Kings. Being a true NON-fan of boxing, I believe Ali's charming demeanor and witting dialogue will win over even the most skeptical viewers. Not only a film about box, When We Were Kings also addresses the challenges Ali faced being a black man living and fighting for rights in a racist 1970's America. You can view the documentary in parts on YouTube. Follow this link to watch segment 1.
