Len Johnson: British Boxing Champion | Drunk History: Black Stories

Videos

Watch Drunk History: Black Stories to learn a thing or two about historical Black figures. But be careful, drink responsibly.

Told by actors Kevin “KG” Garry and Travis Jay, this is the story of Len Johnson, a middleweight boxing champion who was never granted the title he deserved due to the white establishment. Despite beating almost every boxer he faced, including the legendary Ted Lewis, the British Boxing Board of Control imposed a ‘colour bar’ that meant both contestants had to be “born of white parents” in a title fight. So he was never awarded a title. In frustration Len retired from boxing and decided to bring his fight against the colour bar to a new arena. After being denied a drink at a local pub for being black he organised a big protest to have the ban lifted. His success inspired others and led to the drive to end the so-called ‘colour bar’. Len’s story is one of a denied legacy, but he will always be the champ to us!

This startup prints camera lenses like computer chips, 10,000 at a time: full EM spectrum sensing

Videos

A new startup out of Harvard Labs has invented a way to print camera lenses 5,000 at a time just like computer chips, and in the same semiconductor foundries that make our computer’s CPUs. They’re 100X thinner than standard smartphone camera lenses, are simpler and cheaper to make, sense the full electromagnetic spectrum — not just visible light — and have excellent 3D-sensing capabilities that could bring Lidar-based dimensional sensing functionality that’s currently only on high-end phones like the iPhone 12 to smartphones across the price spectrum.

In this episode of TechFirst with John Koetsier, I interview Metalenz co-founder Rob Devlin.

Lyrics:
Where do I belong?
Tell me your story and I’ll tell you mine
I’m all ears, take your time, we got all night
Show me the rivers crossed, the mountains scaled
Show me who made you walk all the way here

Settle down, put your bags down
(Ooh) You’re alright now

We don’t need to be related to relate
We don’t need to share genes or a surname
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family
So what if we don’t look the same?
We been going through the same thing
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family

Hand me a pen and I’ll rewrite the pain
When you’re ready, we’ll turn the page together
Open a bottle, it’s time we celebrate
Who you were, who you are
We’re one and the same, yeah, yeah

We don’t need to be related to relate
We don’t need to share genes or a surname
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family
So what if we don’t look the same?
We been going through the same thing
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family

I, I chose you
You chose me
I chose
(Chosen family)
I chose you
You chose me
We’re alright now

We don’t need to be related to relate
We don’t need to share genes or a surname
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family
So what if we don’t look the same?
We been going through the same thing
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family

We don’t need to be related to relate
We don’t need to share genes or a surname
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family
So what if we don’t look the same?
We been going through the same thing
You are
You are
My chosen
Chosen family

Lyrics:
Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same
Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same

Waking up to this disarray
This uncertainness only seems to serve the misery
Maya place on me
Mother take from me
All of this false shit
I do not need it
I believe in magic
Because I’ve seen it
Nothing you the ego
You know already, how it goes
I got a strong mind a strong girl
From my head to my toe
Back to my ego
These Earthly habits have got to get going
I’ve let go of desires but have I truly
Let go of the fires that burn them and fuel them
It’s so hard to be human
With a battling mind
I have lost all devotion over time
I’m on the path of remembrance
And I’m remembering fine
Having nothing that’s mine only borrowing time. My kind
Chatting to GOD unworthy of his time
With all these doubts in my mind im trying to cast aside, left to struggle in my rhymes

Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same
Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same

Inner battles dwell like city kids beneath the poverty line,
I’m feeding my senses
Food for thought is money well spented
Cause most of our so called knowledge is rented,
invented, depended on flippant friends, social scenarios, hollow like cheerios you hear me though
Never thought I’d be coming out your stereo
But there we go, maktub ya’ll
It’s written you know

Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same
Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same

Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same
Nah it ain’t the same
Being a man today
Nah it ain’t the same
