      Hey family, if your gonna quote Revelation then quote it all. The third part of that which is "eyes red like fire". I'm a black man who believes Jesus was a man of color because if the region he lived in not because of bible verses that are symbolic. I can't understand how most brothers I know either don't believe in the bible or say its the slave masters religion but will grab those verses to press that Jesus was undoubtedly black.

    I truly thank God for this man I remember the first time I met him my manager introduced me to him in 2006. He also later on went to my mother a few times to get his haircut unfortunately one of those times my mother received a phone call that my aunt had passed away and she was so distraught that she couldn’t even talk. I’ll never forget the day he rang my phone and Said you need to come to your moms house. It was very comforting for me To know that he had enough compassion to stay with my mother until I got there and help her through it. ironically enough when my mom and her siblings were kids they used to love his TV show. who knew that years later he would be a pivotal individual in a very sensitive time in their lives. Life is very interesting like that.

    fun fact about Ali. Sugar Ray Robinson was his idol. He met and asked Ray to train him once before he became famous and Ray told him "he didn't have time kid" and drove off with 2 women. Yet during the first Liston Fight in 1964, his biggest, there was Ali propping Sugar Ray Robinson as the greatest of all time. He didn't tell that story publicly till the late 70s. Wonderful man.

    Wow I knew Ali a nice guy but after hearing this he’s a great guy. I met Ali in NYC in midtown on the street he was on 51st and Lexington just walking with another person. It was around 1988. At that time he had Parkinson’s disease. A few people went up to him for an autograph.
    They were handing him dollar bills to sign. But he really couldn’t sign his name. You couldn’t make out what he signed. A few times he missed signing the dollar bill and sign on his hand.
    Some people handed him dollar bills to sign and he put them in his pocket and walked way. You could see he didn’t know where he was. What a shame Parkinson’s disease can do to a person.
    I was a field Technician in NYC. I worked all around NYC doing Service calls to different Companies . I saw a few people on the street Jackie" Kennedy Onassis around 1988 midtown on Park Ave and 51 Street she was walking around in all black. She had 2 bodyguards a few feet in back of her. She looked like she was out of it. I saw Mick Jaguar in 1987 walking into a music studio in Midtown NYC.
    I also saw Howard Cosell at ABC on west End avenue. This was around 1993 he was talking to himself when he was walking around in the building. He had issues. I think he had Parkinson’s too. I met Haywood Nelson who played Dwayne on What’s Happening. He was on the NYC Subway back in 1996. I was joking around with him I said where Roger. Dwayne is a nice guy. He told me he stopped acting and was a Preacher. I believe he was going to Brooklyn, NY on the subway.
