Owens is a true American hero. He was the right guy in exactly the right time. Hitler was so sure his guys would sweep the events. Jessie had other ideas
What’s sad is Owen’s was not able to live a life off of the means he should have had after these Olympics.
He had to sell this medal eventually as well as his other gold medals in order to make ends meet in his later life, while working a 9-5. America did not take proper care of this hero.
