Original Note:
After Jesse Owens won the race, Hitler “gave him a friendly little Nazi salute.” Roosevelt however never acknowledged the triumphs of any of the 18 African Americans who competed at the Berlin Olympics. Only white Olympians were invited to the White House in 1936. https://www.britannica.com/story/was-jesse-owens-snubbed-by-adolf-hitler-at-the-berlin-olympics
