On this day 53 years ago, Tommie Smith & John Carlos gestured the Black Power Salute at the 1968 Olympics, in protest of growing racial injustice. Decades later, the division they protested against endures. We must follow their example of bravery & stand up against injustice. https://t.co/sxPj7V8Bw7 — PolitiTweet.org
