A historical, pictorial reflection of 66 black male track and field Olympic medalists, who raced, jumped, and showed infinite strength, resolve and dignity. Each step they took was one of faith and determination to uplift themselves, their families, and their communities. This books reflection takes you from the first Olympic Games in 1904, where two men raced and jumped to Bronze and Silver Olympic medals in St. Louis, Missouri. The Pivotal games of Gold in 1936, where Jesse Owens and 9 black male Olympians amassed 13 total medals, in the face of a dictator who created racial divide on a world stage. The journey to 1968, in Mexico City, Mexico, is truly the Paradigm shift in track and field. The forward from 1984 Olympic Gold medalist and NFL Professional player, Ron Brown, and introduction from 1988 Olympic Gold medalist, Dr. Andre Phillips, raced into history on the shoulders of the 66 Olympians who took a stand for black Americans and a salute for human rights. Athletes Beyond The Wind - The Black American Male Track and Field Experience highlights lives that truly matter in the critical link uniting black men from the USA to the World through Olympic competitive participation.
