For last year's Florida game my buddy had one of the young gentleman that he goes to church with went to the game with us...he is from Fla , is black working in their youth ministry and going to the seminary... After catwalk he and I were walking around and I was showing him the new practice facility and we went by the statues . I explained the origin behind them . He was impressed and had no idea that UK had integrated the league in fb...said he would always root for UK after that .I made a trip to see the statue about a year, ago.
That was a powerful message.
My question as well . I don't recognize him.Who is the speaker?
Kinda guessing but I believe that is former player Paul KaremWho is the speaker?
Dude that was dope AF.
Who I thought I just couldn't remember his nameKinda guessing but I believe that is former player Paul Karem
without apologies to our Deep South conference fellows.
Anybody else starving after that. OMG that food looked so good.
Very true.The traditionally white Masonic Lodges in Kentucky [F & A M], and the traditionally African American Lodges [Prince Hall] finally joined forces, whilst retaining their individual lodges, in 2017.
I ran into a member of my traditionally "white" Lodge, and he asked "but what about the old-timers?"
I said, "the old-timers were wrong . . . . . . . .wrong . . . . . . . wrong!!!!!!"
Most people don't realize it, but the slurs, slings and arrows absorbed by heros like Jackie Robinson, Houston Hogg, Greg Page, Northington and others, still serve as guideposts to a better and fairer society.
He did...I always thought Perry Wallace at Vandy broke the SEC hoops color barrier.
AMEN.Wonderful to hear this.. Tear's welled up in my eye's when I watched it.. I am an old white dude and have never liked racism from any color. It's in all race's and should never be there. We are all human made in God's image. God see's no color..

Here is the link to the trailer:
I had the pleasure of meeting Paul a few months back. I drive for Uber part-time and drove up to Paul’s house not knowing who he was. The first thing he noticed were my uk seat covers and then he introduced himself as a former uk qb. He told me about how he was involved in getting those statues built and his movie. I told him that my family was friends with the Hackett family. I then proceeded to tell him a story Wilbur sr once shared with me. Paul replied “it’s in the movie.”
The speaker is Paul Karem.
He was a former UK quarterback.
Paul led the charge to recognize the four men who are immortalized in the statues.
