Rafer Johnson, Olympic Torchbearer, Honored by Smithsonian

Rafer Johnson was recently informed by the Smithsonian that he is only one of two African American Olympic torchbearers who lit the torch (Muhammad Ali was the other person).  They are honoring him with an exhibit which will include, as Rafer called it, a picture of “his school with his students.”  

Congratulations, Rafer!
