"Race" is a new movie about Olympic athlete Jesse Owens who make Hitler look bad in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. Hitler's Olympics were all about showcasing Arian supremacy and then Jesse Owens came along and won four gold medals. Unfortunately, he had difficulty finding work in the U.S. despite his Olympic victories because of his race.
For extra credit, see the movie race and tell me what you thought about Owens and the way the movie depicted his life. Please use original writing and tell me your opinion. Nothing from the Internet. The movie comes out February 19. A few short paragraphs is plenty. Put the extra credit in your binder.
