  • Muhammad Ali comments on the ups and downs of his boxing career, race relations and his religious beliefs.
    CUNY TV is proud to re-broadcast newly digitized episodes of DAY AT NIGHT, the popular public television series hosted by the late James Day. Day was a true pioneer of public television: co-founder of KQED in San Francisco, president of WNET upon the merger of National Educational Television (NET) and television station WNDT/Channel 13, and most recently, Chairman of the CUNY TV Advisory Board. The series features fascinating interviews with notable cultural and political figures conducted in the mid 1970's.
    James Day died on April 24, 2008, at age 89. After hosting DAY AT NIGHT, he was appointed Professor of Radio and Television at CUNY's Brooklyn College in 1976, and was named Professor Emeritus upon his retirement in 1988. In 2000, CUNY TV named him Chairman of its Advisory Board. Day - a founder of INPUT, an international conference of public television broadcasters - also was host of "The Global Tube," a multi-year series on CUNY TV that presented notable television films from around the world.
    This edition was taped February 19, 1974.

    I could honestly sit and listen to Muhammad Ali speak on every topic under the sun for literally days, and I guarantee he'd virtually have me questioning my own previous thoughts on every single one of them. What an intelligent man. And an equally intelligent fighter.

    Ali won the gold medal in the 1960 Olympics a few years before I was born . By the time I got old enough to be aware he was word champ and then they took it away from him because he wouldnt go to Nam . I remember some of those days but our family loved the champ ..my mom and dad loved him because he was standing up for the kids sent to Nam as my uncle was killed there at age 23 with a pregnant wife at home and we all felt that war was wrong like Ali ...He was the champion of my life because he always did the right thing and loved all people ..My God he was an amazing man ..God Bless and Rahmat Allah wa Barakaatuh.

    Amazing and inspiring thoughts of Mr. Mohammad Ali.(RIP. )
    Indeed he was the greatest man of his times..He was the crownless King of the people. Always thinking of how to help people. Not just the oppressed 40 million black Afro Americans ,but any body who was in need of help he helped. Best example was that quoted by his financial advisor, Once Mohammad Ali was in his room watching T.V. he saw a Jewish senior citizens home at the verge of closing ,so immediately he ordered his financial manager/adviser , who was sitting next to him, to send 500,000 dollars to the management of a Jewish nursing home., to prevent it from closing This was the humanity in him, at its best. We all black,whites,browns,yellows and red can learn from the Great Boxer and more importantly a great human being. HE read the Quranic. My prayer, my sacrifice ,my life ,and my death are all for God and indeed he lived and died that way. No greater success than that can be achieved in life. I would just editorialize one thing here. I.e. love God and Love people for the love of God. You will never go wrong. The world will be at your feet . You shall stand tall..

What a guy, there's so many legendary tales of Ali outside of boxing, such a humanitarian.

    People talk about his physical skills but I think he is the smartest fighter ever. Could adapt to any situation like the 3 fraizer fights. Every time fraizer would gain an advantage ali would turn things around. And that was no easy thing as fraizer was a tank aswell as having highly underrated defense and fight IQ. He truly was the greatest in the ring and out. A fighter could have 100 fights and be undefeated but ali will always be the goat. His accomplishments outside the ring add to the mystique. A man of peace and love to everyone. More humble than people ever gave him credit for. RIP the greatest.

    Ali a man who can match wits and destroy anyone to bits, you'll look up to him not just cause he's tall but because he loves all. We thank him for being great it was his fate. (This poem I just wrote is a masterpiece) 😎

    ali interviews go quick, even though they are over 30 mins. Ali is a man of principles. Greatest of all time in and outside of the ring.

    Ali was a great guy. He had it all. Too bad he wasn’t influenced by Larry Elder. Even so he makes good arguments for his position. He was a product of his time. God bless him.

    I’m 54 years old I was 9 when I saw him defeat foreman on tv in Zaire I consider my self lucky to live in his time I may have been too young to understand all he stood for but as a young child I was aware of his presence and what he taught he was not a perfect man but he was still a great man

    Love this...you know when Ali's voice softened as he became older... He still had pearls of wisdom... And we could not hear him... I don't know why they did not place the mike closer to his mouth... Or give him a hand held one...
    In this interview Ali appears stressed...and the interviewer, as though perhaps last minute time was short...and hence interview rushed...

      Right, poor technical production back then. When Ali turns his head either way you lose more audio because of the mic location.

    I know it was recorded pre-social distancing but it was funny how close they are sitting to each other!
    Joking aside, what a man! An original character with an internal sense of justice and the will to see it through.
