:mjcry: RIP to a legend. I don't agree with his later views, and he stood with Donald Trump and against Colin Kaep, on TNT crew had me :snoop: I always felt like white people took advantage of him when he was getting old, not the same guy in his prime. These cacs used him as a pawn.

But I would never forget what he did for black people in his time.

As Black Americans fought for equality, Brown used his platform and voice to advance their cause.

In 1967, Brown organized a meeting in Cleveland of the nation’s top Black athletes, including Bill Russell and Lew Alcindor, who later became Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, to support boxer Muhammad Ali’s fight against the war in Vietnam.

In later years, he worked to curb gang violence in LA and founded Amer-I-Can, a program to help disadvantaged inner-city youth and ex-convicts.
