Something to Celebrate - Beijing 2022
Crossing the line with a run that she knew was good enough for a medal, Elana Meyers Taylor (USA) threw her fist in the air in celebration. She and her teammate (and brakewoman) Sylvia Hoffman won the Bronze medal in the two-woman bobsled, making Meyers Taylor the most decorated black American Winter Olympian. Her fist in the air caused no reacion unlike it did 54 years ago when Tommie Smith raised his black fist in the air on the podium of the Summer Olympics in 1968. Look it up.
