But with a talent for basketball, and an unmatched team of supporters, Lew Alcindor was able to transform and to become Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. From a childhood made difficult by racism and prejudice to a record-smashing career on the basketball court as an adult, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's life was packed with "coaches" who taught him right from wrong and led him on the path to greatness. His parents, coaches Jack Donahue and John Wooden, Muhammad Ali, Bruce Lee, and many others played important roles in Abdul-Jabbar's life and sparked him to become an activist for social change and advancement. The inspiration from those around him, and his drive to find his own path in life, are highlighted in this personal and awe-inspiring journey. 600 10 $a Abdul-Jabbar, Kareem, $d 1947- 650 0 $a Basketball players. 650 0 $a Social reformers. 650 0 $a Playaway (Preloaded audio player) 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies & Memoirs. $2 local 655 7 $a Sports & Recreation. $2 local 655 7 $a Young Adult Nonfiction. $2 local 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Obstfeld, Raymond, $d 1952- $e author. 710 2 $a Playaway Digital Audio. 710 2 $a Findaway World, LLC. 941 $a 1 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20180313013810.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=28A643EA268411E8BD38D11E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
