How could Johnson possibly be in danger of being "forgotten"? Hasn't anyone ever seen "The Great White Hope" starring James Earl Jones? The movie was made in 1968, and is replayed all the time. Great flick, well made, yet another great performance by Jones. And Ken Burns "discovered" this guy for the libs to cry over? Puh-leeez!

When they are not crying over Johnson being maligned for marrying White prostitutes the Lefties cry even over Joe Louis. In one documentary about Louis-Schmelling the narrator claims that the German was not a Nazi and that Louis was not free. As proof of the lack of freedom, it is reported that Louis was not allowed to purchase a house in the New Jersey suburb of his choice. So we can see that Nazism existed here-----Not. As for Schmelling, he was a nice man and the only one who beat Louis in his prime.
