    The main focus of this article was on Ali’s career, his determination towards achieving his goals, and his dedication towards Islam. The article spoke about instances where Ali stood up against others to defend his religion, and show his loyalty towards Islam. An example of this could be when Ali refused to be drafted into the Vietnam War, or when he announced he was a Black Muslim and changed his name from Cassius Marcellus Clay to Muhammad Ali. Many people were outraged because of this, but he was not held back by their anger, instead, he was driven by it. It showed that his determination to change the way people viewed his religion was too powerful to let their opinions and thoughts stop him from achieving his goal.…
