Figure2006, Arthur Ashe is the guy in the video; a great tennis champion and more notably a great humanitarian who fought against racism. He died from AIDS contracted from tainted blood during a blood transfusion. A truly great, great man.
Anthony, you said it wonderfully. So many remember Arthur Ashe for his tennis feats, but he was a great humanitarian who left us too soon. What an inspirational man - his book, "Days of Grace", is a treasure in my personal library and never fails to inspire me to be a better person and make the most of the opportunities I have been blessed with.
"That was pretty good." My thoughts exactly about the clip.

Actually he died sometime in the 90s.
I should also add there was a fast and slow segment and couple others where the kids would count to 20 and say the alphabet.
Allso he appeared on the 1st season of 321 Contact.
