30 | The Big Dipper: Wilt Chamberlain | Part ll
Manage episode 402084890 series 3506337
Wilt Chamberlain goes from sideshow to superstar early in his career. But as his profile rises, so do the challenges of being a famous black athlete in the midst of the Civil Rights Era. Wilt's formative years in the NBA are spent repeatedly losing to Red Auerbach's Boston Celtics; one of the most successful dynasties in league history. In part two of the Big Dipper, Wilt's outlook and political ideologies are at odds with his rival team's biggest star, Bill Russell, making him a target for critics and naysayers.
