Topic	History on Cassius Marcellus Clay (Abolitionist)
2Pacavelli 11/19/20 4:30:20 AM #1:	https://youtu.be/83vOD4oCuzg Cassius Marcellus Clay was born into a slave holding family, but he hated slavery himself. When he had the opportunity as a teenager, he set all of the slaves in his family free. He became a revered and great Kentuckian and Abolitionist in his era. Some hated him for it and actually attempted to take his life but he defended himself and even killed many of them. More details in the video Muhammad Alis original name Cassius Marcellus Clay was identical to this man. His 6th gen great grandfather was an enslaved man who was named Cassius Marcellus Clay as well. The name was common in Kentucky, which is why in one interview before he changed his name he stated Cassius Marcellus Clay was a great name in Kentucky.
