En savoir plus sur le livre

Set against the backdrop of the 1968 Olympics, the narrative explores Harry Edwards' call for a boycott to combat racial discrimination globally. Although the boycott did not occur, it inspired African American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos to make a powerful statement by raising their fists in protest during the medal ceremony. This act became an iconic moment in sports history, highlighting the intersection of athletics and social justice. The book delves into themes of activism, identity, and the struggle for equality.
