Woodrow Wilson Woolwine Strode better known as just Woody Strode.
July 25, 1914 - December 31, 1994
Before black actors were portrayed on the Big Screen as “action heroes,“ there was one African American actor back then who was the definition of “Alpha Phi Alpha Badass.
If you want to know about manliness, hard work and grit, look no further than Alpha Phi Alpha’s very own Woody Strode.
Strode was a college track and football star at UCLA, one of the first Blacks to integrate the NFL, a professional wrestler, a Golden Globe nominated actor, a WWII veteran . This man was the definition of a renaissance man.
