Like any other mature human being, Ali's views changed over time. It is perfectly true that in his youth he was against racial integration, but so what?
There's a (possibly apocryphal) story that when he returned from the Olympics, he was refused service at a diner in his hometown because, 'We don't serve niggers here.' Shortly thereafter, he threw his gold medal into a river.
Ali was clearly a man with the courage of his convictions, but that doesn't mean his convictions never changed.
