No One Believed These Woody Strode Stories! Until They Watched ThisWoody Strode broke the color barrier in professional football a full year before Jackie Robinson touched a baseball. He earned a Golden Globe nomination in Spartacus. He starred in four films now preserved in the National Film Registry. And when John Ford was dying of cancer, Strode slept on his bedroom floor for four months. Yet The New York Times called him a “character actor.” This is the extraordinary, invisible life of Woody Strode.📌 TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 – Introduction 1:02 – #10: The Nazi Poster Boy 3:32 – #9: The Gold Dust Gang at UCLA 5:04 – #8: The Forgotten Four 6:55 – #7: 12 and 0 — Calgary’s Perfect Season 7:58 – #6: Trapped for Life — Wrestling & Hollywood 9:51 – #5: The Gladiator Who Refused to Kill (Spartacus) 11:35 – #4: Sergeant Rutledge — A Race Across the River 13:39 – #3: The Man Behind Liberty Valance 15:36 – #2: The Longest 10 Minutes in Cinema 17:11 – #1: The Old Man’s Floor#WoodyStrode #ClassicHollywood #Spartacus #JohnFord #GoldenAgeHollywood #WesternMovies #OnceUponATimeInTheWest #SergioLeone #LibertyValance #SergeantRutledge #ForgottenFour #NFLHistory #JackieRobinson #UCLA #BlackHistoryHollywood #GoldenGlobe #ClassicWesterns #OldHollywood #TinselTownLegendsFacts and stories used to write the script of this video are well-researched.

Note from Oakland News Now Blog, Zennie62 YouTube, and Zennie62Media: this Oakland News Online Blog video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018, originally on Zennie62Media , Inc.’s Oakland News Now. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. This is what we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a “liked” YouTube video by a vlogger with the Zennie62 on YouTube Partner Channel, then that YouTube video is uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Online Blog site and Zennie62Media -created and owned social media pages. The overall objective is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours. Now, news is reported with a smartphone: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, thus less chance for Oakland News Online Blog, Zennie62 YouTube vloggers to be robbed. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners. This process is entirely within YouTube terms of service, where embedding of videos for use on websites and platforms is allowed and encouraged.
