Sports:Wrestling
This week it's a sensitive topic, and that's how black wrestlers were booked in the AWA compared to other territories. Why are we talking about black wrestlers and not minorities as a whole, and did Verne make it a point to treat them fairly?
Did wrestlers talk about how they were treated, why did/didn’t Verne play into the stereotypes? Names include "Big Daddy" Gene Lipscomb, Sailor Art Thomas, Rufus R. Jones, Tony Atlas, "Hacksaw" Butch Reed, Larry Cameron and more.
