a fact usually, and
conveniently , left out in the "infamous" depiction of this event:
"Ironically,
Owens’s tiny room – No 5, in block 39 – is so far the only athlete’s room that
has been renovated. It’s a simple space that reflects the modesty of the humble
man who stayed there –
a man who,
paradoxically, enjoyed more freedom in Nazi Germany at that time than he did in
his segregated U.S. homeland."
but...but...wait a
minute...golly...gosh...jeepers...oh my god...or, omg...
we were the land of the
free, home of the brave, cradle of liberty, and they were the evil fascist
genocidal nazi racist monster killer maniacs from hell !
the copy editor who let
that one through may be looking for a job...
