Jesse Owens vs. Master Race

Conclusion

• Jesse Owens' coach warned him about the racial discrimination in Germany.  But most of the people were actually his big fans when he got off the Manhattan Ocean Liner.

• He was tall, handsome, modest and had a boyish charm which made him very likeable.

• He won four medals in the Olympics:

         4 x 100

         Long jump - 8.03 m

         100 meters - 10.3 sec

         200 meters - 20.7 sec

• Pierre de Coubertin, had told all the participants that it is important to participate and not win, it is to struggle in life, not conquer.

• Adolf Hitler was furious when Owens mocked him through his achievements. He wished to see the Germans lead in the Olympics and hence he even refused to be photographed with Owens.
