I am a radical, Robeson insisted, and I am going to stay one until my people get free to walk the Earth.

read and share, from our good friend Dr. Krystal Strong:
#tdih On Oct. 14, 1916, sophomore Paul Robeson was excluded from the Rutgers Football team. Robeson was one of their best players, but Washington and Lee Univer...sity refused to play against a Black player. Instead of standing by their full team, Rutgers pulled Robeson from the game. Robeson went on to be named a football All-American twice, class valedictorian, a lawyer, and one of best 20th century actors, singers, speakers, and advocates for justice.
