In 2000, legendary producer Jerry Bruckheimer brought the inspiring story of TC Williams' 1971 state championship football season to the big screen with "Remember the Titans." Denzel Washington's portrayal of Coach Herman Boone and a message of racial inclusion resonated globally. Tonight, I had the privilege of speaking with key surviving members of that historic team, Fred Alderson, Kirk Barker, Ronny "Sunshine" Bass, Jim Brown, Derick Hopson, Bob Luckett, and Warren Robinson. Together, we delve into the actual events of the 1971 season and their reflections on the movie. While Hollywood took liberties with the facts, the Titans are grateful that their remarkable season will always be remembered.
