More than five decades later, his silent protest still speaks volumes. Whether through raised fists or taking a knee, the fight against racial and social injustice continues.

Peter Norman, vilified and sanctioned for supporting dissent.

“He paid the price. This was Peter Norman’s stand for #humanrights”.

“He just happened to be a white guy, an Australian white guy, between two black guys in the victory stand believing in the same thing.” - #TommieSmith

A photo of a red folding bicycle with a blue-and-gold Ukraine flag hanging from the back seat. The bike is leaning against a low wall and positioned in front of a grassy expanse at San Jose State University, with the iconic Victory Salute statue in the background, depicting U.S. athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos at the 1968 Olympics with fists raised in a Black Power salute to protest racism faced by Black Americans.
