#TBT: The Greatest

Image property of Wings; all rights reserved.

Today at The NDN Silver Blog, it's a very special edition of #ThrowbackThursday, prompted by the near-twin birthdays of two great men. Today, of course, would have been the 86th birthday of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. — the actual day, not the day set aside for bank holidays and white sales. The subject of the post, though, is a man who inspired him, and who will celebrate his own 73rd birthday the day after tomorrow: the one they call "The Greatest." He's a man who Wings has been privileged to meet, and to introduce his own culture to him in a small way. 

Yes, Muhammad Ali.

There's nothing featured for sale in the post. It's simply a remembrance of the man himself, of his vision and leadership and activism, and of an occasion that brought Wings together with one of his role models.

Shares of the post itself, and of Wings's main page, are of course welcomed with thanks.
