"RACISM TARNISHES THE MR. AMERICA TITLE
The AAU launched the Mr. America contest in 1938, but it wasn't until Chris Dickerson in 1970 that a person of color won. During the first 32 annual renditions, great black bodybuilders such as George Paine, Melvin Wells, Art Harris and Elmo Santiago were denied the title. Despite his unparalleled muscularity, Sergio Oliva lost the Mr. America three times, including 1966, the year he switched to the IFBB and won their Mr. World title. (Cuban refugee Oliva reportedly lost the 1963 AAU Mr. Chicago because he didn't speak English like a born American.)
Joe and Ben Weider and the IFBB were instrumental in breaking down bodybuilding's racial barriers. They heavily promoted black bodybuilders like Leroy Colbert in the '50s, and Harold Poole won the IFBB Mr. America in 1964 (the year Oliva finished seventh in the AAU version)."
I don't know the facts here around the allegations of racism, but looks like a pretty self-serving set of statements written by the Weiders themselves.
