Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Many now consider Muhammad Ali a great American hero. But thirty years ago, mainstream America criticized him for being on the wrong side of many political, cultural, and religious issues. Award-winning author Mike Marqusee joins Kojo to discuss Ali, his controversies, his triumphs, and his influence outside the ring.
