Course Description
Instructor: Art Jones, MA(Two weeks only: June 5 and 12)
The year is 1970. It has been three and a half years since Muhammad Ali was stripped of his title. Convicted of draft evasion. Threatened with imprisonment. Banned In all 50 states, he is unable to work in the field for which he had no equal. The wide door on his illustrious career seems to be closing. But in Atlanta, Georgia, that all changed. Ali’s Comeback explores the political and racial climate of America in 1970, and how Muhammad Ali, the most polarizing figure in America, was able to return in the least likely location: Atlanta, Georgia.
