What's good people? It's your boy Quincy Murdaugh
00:00:02.100 --> 00:00:04.620
with another episode of Nigel's Music Podcast
00:00:04.620 --> 00:00:13.419
where we keep it real and honest. Today I want
00:00:13.419 --> 00:00:17.859
to talk about the Harlem Globetrotters. The Harlem
00:00:17.859 --> 00:00:21.300
Globetrotters. Black history is significant because
00:00:21.300 --> 00:00:25.239
they provided a platform for black athletes during
00:00:25.239 --> 00:00:29.730
segregation. Showcase black excellence. and help
00:00:29.730 --> 00:00:33.490
break down racial barriers in professional basketball.
00:00:34.570 --> 00:00:38.329
The victories against NBA's Minneapolis Lakers
00:00:38.329 --> 00:00:42.649
helped pave the way for the NBA's interrogation
00:00:42.649 --> 00:00:46.630
in 1950 when Nat Sweetheart Clifton, a former
00:00:46.630 --> 00:00:49.990
Globetrotter, became the first African -American
00:00:49.990 --> 00:00:54.500
to sign an NBA contract. The team also served
00:00:54.500 --> 00:00:57.140
as cultural ambassadors through their global
00:00:57.140 --> 00:01:00.719
tours, challenging stereotypes, and dispelling
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.319
myths about black people. So breaking down racial
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:08.959
barriers. They were founded in 1926. The team
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:11.900
offered black players opportunities in a sport
00:01:11.900 --> 00:01:15.500
where they were often excluded from the mainstream
00:01:15.500 --> 00:01:19.280
league. Now you look in the league, it's dominated
00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:23.150
by blacks, huh? It's crazy, right? how times
00:01:23.150 --> 00:01:27.689
change. Interrogating the NBA. The team's victories
00:01:27.689 --> 00:01:31.290
over Minneapolis Lakers in the late 1940s demonstrated
00:01:31.290 --> 00:01:35.590
the skill of black athletes leading to the NBA's
00:01:35.590 --> 00:01:39.670
interrogation in 1950. As I stated before, Nat
00:01:39.670 --> 00:01:43.450
Sweetheart Clifton was the first to sign an NBA

contract that year. Cultural ambassadors. The
