In 1974 two Black Americans fought in Zaire,in Africa.One was Muhammad Ali.After the fight,he was boxing champion of the world again.It seemed that he was so strong and everything was successfully,but he had have been discriminated as a Black American.Now his story still have been giving hopes to many people in the world.

I chose this book because I knew a little about him and his daughter.It is a long,sad,and unforgettable story.Many black people have worked hard for peace.One of them is Ali.He was of course,a famos boxer,a word champion,but he fought for black people,too.Although he stopped boxing,today he is fighting for peace of the world.I'm really proud of him.He is a great parson!
