Dear friends,
On the link below is a 7 minutes-long interview with Muhammad Ali, where he is joined by the Jackson 5. The main point that he raises here is the need for African Americans to begin thinking about how we can come together and uplift ourselves from our historical lower middle class status. Enjoy!

Ali had a great idea. I vaguely remember talk of this idea back then. Black celebrities may have united to raise funds for something, but not a hotel. Unfortunately, most of them feels they've "made it" and are no longer part of African America.
"When a trendy Starwood boutique hotel called Aloft opens in Harlem later this month, it will be the neighborhood's first major hotel since the famed Theresa closed in 1967."
