Jesse Owens Won Gold
During the 1936 Olympics, this photo was taken. As he receives one of the four gold medals he bagged, Jesse Owens can be seen standing tall! He destroyed the Nazi government’s plans to display Aryan athletes’ alleged superiority. During the Olympic Games, his performance is still considered one of the most outstanding individual sports history achievements. The crowd had been hostile to him, but he ended up setting new world records and tying the 100 m dash world record in various sports.
