Trump in May granted a rare, posthumous pardon to boxing's first black heavyweight champion, clearing Jack Johnson's name more than 100 years after what many saw as his racially charged conviction. Trump said as he announced his decision that he wanted "to correct a wrong that occurred in our history and to honor a truly legendary boxing champion." Johnson was convicted in 1913 by an all-white jury of violating the Mann Act for traveling with his white girlfriend. That law made it illegal to transport women across state lines for "immoral" purposes.
