  • National Winner History of Sport Ashwin Ramanathan
    National winner History of sport Ashwin ramanathan Christ church grammar school Peter Norman: a defining moment Peter Norman: A Defining Moment Ashwin Ramanathan A defining moment in history is an act that stands out as a significant event in the shaping of our world. A single moment that will change the lives of future generations forever. One that is remembered for the lasting effects that it brought upon us. Effects that are embedded into our memories. What Peter Norman did and stood for as a person deserves to be treated as defining, yet in his own country, this is little acknowledged. Even at the time many of his fellow countrymen were not aware of the significance of the moment for the world and for Norman. Eric Pearce, the Australian flag bearer at the Closing Ceremony and member of the hockey team commented, “The black power salute caused a ripple with the Australian athletes in the village but was soon forgotten. It was only regarded very briefly by myself and other competitors.” (Pearce, 2011) He became a part of a historical force that revolutionized the lives of millions of men, women and children but this came at a great personal cost. His actions on the 16th October 1968 were not only a part of a defining historical moment when politics, sport and race converged, but were also set to define his future: a future that was characterized by rejection and personal, physical and mental decline. On 16th October 1968 at the XIX Summer Olympic Games in Mexico, Tommie Smith won the gold medal, and John Carlos the bronze, in the 200m final.

    https://www.history.com/news/1968-mexico-city-olympics-black-power-protest-backlash UPDATED: OCT 19, 2018 ORIGINAL: FEB 22, 2018 How the Black Power Protest at the 1968 Olympics Killed Careers ERIN BLAKEMORE It’s an iconic image: Two athletes raise their fists on the Olympic podium. The photograph, taken after the 200 meter race at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City, turned African-American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos from track-and-field stars into the center of a roiling controversy over their raised-fist salute, a symbol of black power and the human rights movement at large. But look in the photo and you’ll see another man as well: silver medalist Peter Norman, a white Australian runner. Norman didn’t raise his fist that day, but he stood with Smith and Carlos. Though his show of solidarity ended up destroying Norman’s career, the three athletes’ actions that day would be just one in a line of protests on the athletic stage. 2 U.S. athletes Tommie Smith, center, and John Carlos raise gloved hands skyward during the playing of the Star Spangled Banner after Smith reCeived the gold and Carlos the bronze for the 200 meter run at the Summer Olympic Games in MexiCo City, 1968. AP Photo Smith and Carlos, who had won gold and bronze, respectively, agreed to use their medal wins as an opportunity to highlight the social issues roiling the United States at the time. Racial tensions were at a height, and the Civil Rights movement had given way to the Black Power movement.

Immediately Essendon Harriers developed into one of the strong clubs, winning a Victorian championship event most years. Two of the greatest Australian champions of the first decade of last century were Essendon athletes. ‘Dad’ Wheatley was the country's top miler and half miler, becoming our first Olympian. Another Essendon athlete, Alex Stilwell was the champion cross country runner winning many 5 and 10 mile titles. In 1910 the major newspaper of the day wrote “as expected, Essendon asserted its authority and is probably the best cross country club in the country.” Also in 1910 the only two Victorians selected for the forerunner of the Commonwealth Games in London were from Essendon. The club ceased activities during World War I and rebuilt slowly. From 1927 the club became a section of the Essendon Club, training at Windy Hill with cricketers and footballers for 41 years.

  • I:\Individual Historymakers\E\Edwards, Harry
    Biographical Description for The HistoryMakers® Video Oral History with Harry Edwards PERSON Edwards, Harry , 1942- Alternative Names: Edwards, Harry , 1942-; Life Dates: November 22, 1942- Place of Birth: East Saint Louis, Illinois Residence: , (from ? to ?) Occupations: Sociology Professor; Civic Activist Biographical Note Sociology professor and civic activist Harry Edwards was born in 1942 in East St. Louis, Illinois to Harry and Adelaide Edwards. Edwards grew up in East St. Louis, Illinois as the second child in a family of eight children. He attended East St. Louis Senior High School where he excelled in sports. After graduating from high school in 1960, Edwards moved to California where he attended Fresno City College. Edwards then transferred to San Jose State University where he majored in sociology and graduated summa cum laude with his B.A. degree in sociology in 1964. In 1966, Edwards went on to receive his M.A. degree in sociology from Cornell University where he was awarded the Woodrow Wilson Fellowship. In 1970, he received his Ph.D. degree in sociology from Cornell University where he helped to found United Black Students for Action and the Olympic Project for Human Rights. Due to his negative experiences as a student athlete on predominately white university campuses, Edwards became heavily involved in exposing the relationship between race and sports in society. By the late 1960s, Edwards began actively organizing protests and demonstrations like the 1968 Olympics Black Power salute at Mexico City involving John Carlos, Peter Norman and Tommie Smith. In 1970, Edwards was hired at the University of California, Berkeley where he taught courses on race relations, the sociology of sport and the family.

Now that we’re a quarter through this calendar year, and about halfway into the Kiwanis year, the various Clubs in Australia District should have their succession plans in place, with incoming Presidents, executive, etc gazetted. Hopefully that applies to BOT positions as well, with Lt Governors often being an ‘interesting’ one. There was a small but defi nitive response to the question in our last AK (p.23) regarding whether the “shortened” version of Kiwanis Objects should be utilised sometimes. Resoundingly correspondents were in favour of retaining the longer, more traditional Objects which I reckon most of us are defi nitely familiar with.

  • Peter Norman Memorial
    Peter Norman Memorial, Lakeside Stadium • Given the current 'Black Lives Matter' campaign, Peter Norman is a proud white Australian who made that statement on an international stage in 1968. • Norman won the 200 metres silver medal at the 1968 Mexico Olympics in a time of 20.06 seconds, which still stands as the Australian record 52 years later. • Wearing an Olympic Project for Human Rights badge, Norman stood in solidarity on the podium with Tommie Smith and John Carlos of the USA, the gold and bronze medallists, respectively, as they held their arms aloft in a Black Power salute. • It was Norman who suggested that Smith and Carlos share the black gloves used in their salute, after Carlos left his pair at the Olympic Village. This is the reason for Smith raising his right fist, while Carlos raised his left. • Despite still being the fastest Australian to have ever run the 200 meters sprint in 2020 Norman was not selected for the 1972 Summer Olympics, and retired from the sport soon after. • After the salute, Norman's career suffered greatly. A 2012 CNN profile said that "he returned home to Australia a pariah, suffering unofficial sanction and ridicule as the Black Power salute's forgotten man. He never ran in the Olympics again.” Commentators say he was not selected for the Olympic Games in Munich in 1972 despite recording adequate times, and was not welcomed even three decades later at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. • Norman, Smith and Carlos remained friends after Mexico City. When Norman passed away in 2006, Smith and Carlos flew to Australia to serve as pall bearers at his funeral.
