    Muhammad Ali used his fame as a boxer to express his political views about events in the world, including the Vietnam War and colonialism.

    Ali was famous for being completely outspoken against the Vietnam War, going as far as refusing to join the US military when drafted. He felt that he should not go over to a country where other innocent "colored" individuals are being killed. This went against his views as a Muslim. Along with this, he felt that he should not have to serve for a country who constantly denies him his rights.

    This attitude Ali had towards the Vietnam War was similar to the one he had against colonialism. Ali felt that any attempt by a strong country to rule over anyone else was an abuse of power. Ali felt that Africans were targeted specifically by these policies, as dozens of African countries were colonized by Europeans. He felt that it was unjust that this countries tried to force their views on these individuals and only associated with them for their own personal gain. Along with this, he felt that these African colonies were treated poorly, just like African-Americans in the US.
