Muhammid Ali...Vintage Sunglasses

Cassius Marcellus Clay was his birth name but we know him as Muhammid Ali. The greatest fighter of all time. 

Ali philanthropic work and social activism are well noted. He is unafraid to speak his mind on the social injustice of the times. In 1964 his refusal of the draft in Vietnam due to his religion was looked upon by many as an egregious mistake. This was a stellar moment in his career.  He would not stand down due to his commitment to the Muslim faith. This act forced him to be stripped of his title as well as being banned  from boxing for 3 years. He remains a revolutionary fighter in life as well as in boxing.

This photo of Ali in his vintage sunglasses, portrays a man who knows where his is going and has no fear of the path ahead.

Easy Rider captures the 1960's era of American history when rebellion, drugs, sex and rock and roll were the societal landscape.

This counterculture film for all like myself who wished they could have experienced this part of American History is a must see. The soundtrack for this film is just as impressive, featuring artists such as Steppenwolf and Jimi Hendrix setting the mood perfectly.

The time for change began and was here to stay.
