I actually read somewhere that, even in 1936, Jesse Owens felt more welcome by the general German public--in public places, in commercial establishments like hotels, restaurants--than he did in America. Irony knows no bounds. God bless his soul. I heard Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali felt the same way when he went to Canada to fight George Chuvalo: he didn't feel the racial tension that plagued America at the time.

Just imagine what Jesse Owens could have done under modern training and modern conditiions..

Los miembros del Comité Olímpico Internacional solicitaron al Führer que se abstuviese de continuar saludando públicamente a los vencedores de cada prueba, concretamente Henri Baillet-Latour, que de acuerdo con el protocolo olímpico, un invitado de honor del comité olímpico no debería saludar a los vencedores. Esto sucedió antes de que CORNELIUS JOHNSON, (Y NO JESSE OWENS) atleta negro estadounidense, fuera laureado con medalla de oro en salto de altura."
Usa miente!!!

Hitler actually like the blacks. The Germans under Hitler planned to build the blacks their own giant farmland where they all could live together and learn about agriculture.

hitler says blacks and especially jews were inferior and white german with a certain hair, skin and eye color were part of a "master race" so hitler got mad and didnt appreciate jesse for him winning so boom... jesse proved hitler wrong

@aeiou99999 Sorry, that's -0.44, so 9.85 today. But even faster with modern training and nutrition. (Even in my day we ate chocolate chip cookies "to get fast".)



The Soviets and British gave him amphetamines to ensure a win to embarrass Hitler for propaganda purposes..Look at the way he was pacing .dead give away.but it worked didn't it?
