A sinistra, Città del Messico 1968: Tommie Smith e John Carlos trasformano il podio olimpico in una presa di posizione morale, rischiando tutto per affermare la dignità umana.
A destra, oggi: Vladyslav Heraskevych cammina sul ghiaccio onorando coloro che hanno dato la vita per l’Ucraina: nessun podio, nessun gesto, solo un ricordo. Epoche diverse, stesso coraggio.

What about the 13 RuZZian Olympic warcrimnals who join the event? Are they banned as well?
RuZZian war criminal Pavel Repilov is allowed to start at the lugers event….money talks as always….what a disgrace!!!
This is an apt comparison. Ukranian athletest are probably best off competing first and then protesting after competing or during the winners ceremony as a surprise rather than something preplanned.
Either way, Vladyslav exposed the hypocrisy of this terrible olympic committee and put his country above personal glory. Hero.
The Olympics is a corruption of the sporting spirit.
Also remember Peter Norman on the podium with Tommie and John. He doesn’t have his fist raised, but he’s wearing a badge supporting their protest. He was ostracised on his return to Australia and was shat on for the rest of his life.
Russians.
Ashamed of nothing.
Offended by everything.
