CLEVELAND — To kick off the Cleveland Browns season opener, members of the team joined owner Jimmy Haslam Friday outside the stadium for the dedication of the latest historical marker on the Cleveland Civil Rights Trail marking the Ali Summit.
Wooten was on hand for the dedication and spoke of Jim Brown giving him the task of placing the calls to the participants. A tough sell it wasn't. "At that time, you were risking everything because you were challenging the Federal Government," Brown recalled."And the government did not want us to be able to prevail and have Ali become a legitimate conscientious objector."
