In 1935, despite an injury, Owens achieved remarkable success, setting multiple world records. His athletic prowess earned him a place in the 1936 Berlin Olympics, held under the Nazi regime. Owens' stunning performances at the Olympics, winning four gold medals, defied Nazi propaganda and made him a global icon.
While in Berlin, Owens formed an unlikely friendship with German athlete Luz Long, who offered him crucial advice during the long jump competition, helping Owens secure the gold medal. This act of sportsmanship transcended racial and political barriers, highlighting the human spirit's capacity for connection and compassion.

I watched this morning. It was very encouraging, and very interesting, but most of all it really reinforces that faith is the foundation for life, that carries us through all challenges in our lives, large and small.. Thank you for the historical stories, as testaments for our faith in Jesus, our Lord and Saviour.

What an inspiring story. I love that both Owens and Lux broke free of the cultural boundaries and propaganda to be a blessing to each other and others.

When Jesse Owens won the gold medal with Adolf Hitler in the stands,he could not get a job when coming back to America .

Glory & honour be to LORD our FATHER in heaven. " Can anything good come Nazareth?" GOD had to manifest HIMSELF thr' Jesse Owen so as Hitler could get down from his high horse to reality that no race or culture outweighs Human kind.
