Major Taylor Association
This group is raising money to build a statue memorializing Major
Taylor, in his hometown of Worcester, MA. Decades before Jessie Owen
and Jackie Robinson appeared on the American sports scene, Major Taylor
broke racial barriers to compete with white athletes in velodromes
across North America, Europe and Australia. In 1899, he became the
second African-American to win a world championship in any sport...
Tragically, Taylor died in poverty and obscurity in 1932. The full
extent of his accomplishments remains unknown outside the cycling
community. We'd like to change that.
