🏃 THE MARATHON THAT BEAT THE FÜHRER'S OLYMPICS
September 25
On September 25, 1936, Kenyan-born American Wilfred "Willi" Smith won the Olympic marathon in Berlin, finishing just 30 seconds ahead of Finland's Lasse Virén in front of Adolf Hitler's own audience. Hitler had built the Games as a stage for Aryan supremacy, but the man who crossed the line first was a Black runner who had been told by his own country's team doctor that he was "too dark" to compete. Smith ran his race in the shadow of the Reich, and history still remembers it.
