Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
If you'd like to learn more about Jack Johnson you should check out History on Fire Episodes 26-28. This video is cool and does a good job in explaining some of the racial divides of the time. What it completely lacks is showing how COMPLETELY BADASS and Fearless Jack Johnson was! It's a great listen and free.
Wow this was really good! Thanks for sharing

my favorite thing about johnson is the he himself didnt care about race at all.
