Hello!!

The International Olympic Association held Tommie Smith and John Carlos guilty of violating the Olympic spirit by making a political statement.
Their medals were taken back. They were subjected to a lot of criticism in their own country. Peter Norman, the Australian athlete, also suffered for his action and he was not included in the Australian team for the next Olympic. But their action succeeded in gaining international attention for the Civil Rights Movement in the USA.
