Truly One Of The Greatest Moments In Our History Of The Billiards World’s Championship. Rack Em!

The First and Only Black ....Cisero Murphy
to win a Billiards World's Championship Title (defeating many white top pool champions) during the Jim Crow Era. He became city champion in 1953 and state champion in 1958. From 1959 to 1964, he was the eastern state champion in the PAL. Later in life, Murphy participated in city programs to help young adults and children, such as Billiards in the Streets, sponsored by the Department of Parks and Recreation. He also would visit veterans hospitals, senior citizen homes, and mental hospitals giving trick shot exhibitions and teaching people how to play pool. He won the New York City championship at age sixteen, and when he was in his twenties, he won the Eastern States 14.1 Championship six straight times. Because he was African American in an era when there were racial tensions in the United States, Murphy was not invited to compete in world title events until 1965 despite his skills as a player. Many other African Americans who were not accepted in the world title events avoided confrontation due to intimidation
