  • 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.
