  • Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory Honors Legacies of Muhammad Ali
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory Honors Legacies of Muhammad Ali and Hank Aaron as Civil Rights Heroes Powerful Mural Debuts Tuesday, June 27 Louisville, KY – June 26th, 2017 - Muhammad Ali once called Hank Aaron, “The only man I idolize more than myself.” These two titans of the American sports scene have much in common as heroes who endured racism and faced down challenges with conviction. An original art installation at Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory entitled, Ali & Aaron: United in The Fight, explores the historic role both athletes played in the fight for civil rights, and inspires guests to examine their own convictions and beliefs. The stirring mural places Ali and Aaron in the context of the Civil Rights movement, starting in the 1950s and continuing to current day. Other figures and events depicted in the mural include protest marches and sit-ins, victims of the 1963 Alabama church bombing, slain NAACP leader Medgar Evers, Louisville activist Anne Braden, and U.S. Representative John Lewis. The monumental piece is 10-feet tall and 30- feet wide, and was painted by Louisville artist, Victor Sweatt. It will be on display through October 8. The exhibition is an interactive experience for guests, who are encouraged to affirm their own convictions by answering the questions, “What beliefs do you go to bat for?” and “What freedoms do you fight for?” Guests can share their written answers by posting them on a wall in the gallery, which becomes an ever-changing part of the exhibition. “I’ve always felt a responsibility to use my baseball fame to better the lives of all people.

  • 1 the Life of Anne Braden, Part
    The Life of Anne Braden, Part Two: a Life in the Movement By Lynn Burnett As Anne Braden crisscrossed the nation raising support to free her husband, the love of her life was unbeknownst to her locked away in solitary confinement. Although they wrote to each other often, Carl worried that Anne already had far too many burdens to bear, and therefore didn’t reveal how difficult his circumstances truly were. Carl used his time in solitary to develop an ascetic quality in himself, composing and reflecting on ethical goals. Anne meanwhile cultivated a large, national network of supporters through her travels, writings and journalistic connections. Civil rights activists and labor organizers across the country understood that if the Bradens could be charged with being part of a Communist conspiracy simply for helping a Black family move into a White neighborhood, that they could be charged with subversion for their activities as well. Freeing Carl Braden thus became a major cause: although his bail was the highest in Kentucky’s history, it was raised in seven months. Carl was released in the summer of 1955. Eight months later, the Supreme Court ruled that the state sedition laws that had been used to target the Bradens were unconstitutional. All charges were dropped. The prosecutor of the Bradens, Scott Hamilton, had hoped to rise to fame through building a sensational anti-Communist case. He instead found his career discredited. A few years later, he put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. Anne and Carl could not, however, simply return to their old lives.

  • The Wall Between by Anne Braden
    University of Louisville ANNE BRADEN INSTITUTE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE RESEARCH BOOK DISCUSSION KIT: The Wall Between By Anne Braden ABI Book Discussion Kit – The Wall Between INTRODUCTION Dear Readers: The Wall Between was first published in 1958, four years after the events that thrust Anne Braden into a life of social justice activism had transpired. It is Anne’s first-person account of her and her husband Carl’s decision in 1954 to purchase a home in an all-white neighborhood for Andrew and Charlotte Wade, who were black, and of the explosive consequences. Eloquently written; filled with equal parts drama, intriguing characters, and psycho-social analysis; and packed with a sense of journalistic integrity, the book was a finalist for the 1958 National Book Award in Nonfiction. This book discussion kit is based on the edition republished in 1999, which includes a foreword by Julian Bond and a new epilogue by Anne Braden. When The Wall Between was published in 1958, the U.S. was embattled in the African American Civil Rights Movement, a war against white supremacy and for human dignity that forced every citizen of the country to ask him or herself, consciously or subconsciously, “What kind of America do I want to live in?” It is with this question in mind that we hope you approach The Wall Between now, in the 21st century. As of the publication of this book discussion kit, the President of the United States is African American. The days of bus boycotts, restaurant sit-ins, angry mobs throwing stones at black children trying to enroll in all-white schools and black men being prosecuted or mob- lynched for looking at a white woman with intent to rape seem light years past.

Voulgaris A Thesis in the Field of History for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University November 2016 © November 2016, Panos John Voulgaris Abstract The rhetoric and life of Muhammad Ali greatly influenced the advancement of African Americans. How did the words of Ali impact the development of black America in the twentieth century? What role does Ali hold in history? Ali was a supremely talented artist in the boxing ring, but he was also acutely aware of his cultural significance. The essential question that must be answered is how Ali went from being one of the most reviled people in white America to an icon of humanitarianism for all people. He sought knowledge through personal experience and human interaction and was profoundly influenced by his own upbringing in the throes of Louisville’s Jim Crow segregation.

  • Annual Report 2015
    ANNUAL REPORT 2015 4 Muhammad Ali Center AS WE LOOK BACK ACROSS 10 YEARS OF PROGRESS Dear Friends, The year 2015 marked the tenth anniversary of the opening of the Muhammad Ali Center and the realization of a vision Muhammad and I shared to inspire people to be their best, believe in their dreams and pursue those dreams with passion and conviction. We also envisioned the Center to be one that called upon Muhammad’s core principles to encourage visitors to become good global citizens and carry on Muhammad’s legacy of finding common ground with others, while actively pursuing humanitarian opportunities to create a better world for all people. Like the “Lighthouse” Muhammad often drew, we want the Muhammad Ali Center to be a personal symbol of global understanding, that welcomes everyone to share in Muhammad’s vision of hope for building a better world, united under our common Annual Report 2015 banner of humanity. In this report, you will read about our humanitarian programs and activities. You’ll discover how these initiatives are inspired by Muhammad’s six core principles: Confidence, Conviction, Dedication, Giving, Respect and Spirituality. We feel a tremendous debt of gratitude to all who have shared our vision and have supported us over the past ten years. The great citizens of Louisville and Kentucky helped open the Muhammad Ali Center and we will always be grateful. The friendship and support of good friends and dedicated fans around the world have helped make the Muhammad Ali Center a global gathering place that has welcomed guests from more than 5 100 countries.
