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.

My uncle, being a father, was my intro to boxing and boxing books. I was first exposed to Muhammad Ali as a young child watching some old bands in my uncle's house. I remember thinking how he could be the greatest when he lost so many times. Of course, the undefeated champion beats several times champion every day of the week. I remember watching Ali light the Olympic flame in Atlanta as a 12-year-old and wondering why this guy was a hero, why he loved so much. Then I read The King of the World: The Rise of Muhammad Ali and the American Hero (1998) by David Remnick. Its been more than 15 years since I read this book, shortly after it was first published. As anyone who has read any Remnick will know, they are written with a style and imagination that describes all their work. It's a great book. It was one of the first books I read that put any athlete in the cultural context in which they acted.
