Sly Stone and Muhammad Ali had a small disgreement

 


  • The post shares a 1974 clip from The Mike Douglas Show where a visibly impaired Sly Stone clashes with Muhammad Ali over Black political representation, with Ali maintaining composure by redirecting toward private unity discussions to avoid public spectacle.
  • This resurfaced moment, posted during Black History Month 2026, underscores Sly's documented struggles with addiction amid his Sly & the Family Stone fame, contrasted by Ali's disciplined advocacy for self-reliance and intra-community solidarity.
