Declassified photo: The first black man who knocks out a white man in 1908

Post by Thomas H » 14 Aug 2022, 13:05

On December 26th in the year 1908, an igbo man called nduka from Anambra, always with his eriri ozo on his legs, popularly known as Jack Johnson became the first African American World Heavyweight Boxing Champion by knocking out Tommy Burns. For years America would not show this image of a blackman knocking out a white man.

They are proud & open-minded people & wouldn’t look down onto others as inferior woyane rats do to make up for their inherent deficiencies.
