About this listen

Joe Louis, “The Brown Bomber,” was more than a heavyweight champion; he symbolized hope during America’s divided times. His victories transcended sports, offering shared pride amidst racial inequality. Despite his contributions during World War II, the government he served turned against him, leading to a tragic struggle with bureaucratic indifference. This Veterans Day, we honor Joe Louis and all who have served with courage. Discover the powerful story of dignity and injustice that resonates today.
