Didn’t Owen said he felt more welcome in Germany than in America?

[cb]

Outright lie. They still won most Gold Medals and still hold the 2nd most Medals out of any country on earth. Owens wrote down in his memoirs that he was treated way better by the Germans than his own people and he became friends with one of the german runners until he died in battle during ww2

[mi_kii]

Fun fact: He was treated better in Germany than in America

[jackjohnson]

He also stated that AH treated him better than Roosevelt ever did.
He also felt more at home in Germany 😂😂
His own autobiography.
Stop making this another political scam.

The Germans won the entire event by a large amount.

[ferminchapa]

I think the Germans loved Jesse while America hated him

[typxxilps]

maybe time to tell the story when Owens arrived back home.

how treated by the president and in the south

[Deibi]

when are you talking about racial segregation in those years yet in the US, also what happen to Owen back in the US, he lived taking any job just to survived meanwhile he was offered many opportunities in Germany

[carapo]

He also said that the chancellor did shake his hand in private.

[ericee-gnjj]

Funny Thing its a myth with not shaking his Hand and germany still won the most gold medals.^-^

"THEY DONT UNDERSTAND THE THINGS I SAY ON TWITTER"

[rvdrvd]

I think you should focus more on how he was treated in the USA and whether Rossvelt shook his hand and congratulated him for winning the gold medals. Don't forget that the theories about eugenics and race superiority come from England and the USA.

[gagepizzorusso]

Owen’s balled out in Germany and the people supported him. It was America that made him a spectacle

[ИмяФамилия-лйр]

Его другом был немецкий бегун Лутц Лонг, который погиб воюя в Африканском корпусе Роммеля
Джесси Оуэнс был свидетелем на свадьбе сына Лонга

[tvshowmemes-jteb]
