What a man. What a role model. What a spiritually evolved human being. Born the same year as my own father-also an amazing man of the highest integrity.
I love how people talked back then. Owens was so well spoken and sounded well educated.
In my opinion I think it was because Education was everything before. Where close to none have never taken it for granted because it was treated as a necessity, and not everyone was fortunate to have the opportunity to go to school.
@@Jon_Nadeau_ wym by well spoken and so educated?
@@malikevans2615 Well let's see, he's speaks very clearly and with proper grammar. He has a wide vocabulary range based on his choice or words and the fact that he doesn't need to resort to "filled pauses" (overusing words such as "like", "so", "um", "you know" to keep the flow going). He conducted himself very professionally and was direct in his responses. He shared some words of wisdom for us to hear his prospective. Just listen to him speak is like a breath of fresh air.
Beautiful English. Very well spoken and well educated man!
Jessie Owens was a great man, not just a great athlete. He was pure class. And, he lived in my home town, Chicago.
What a great man Jesse owens was.
Owens won medals for a country that didn't appreciated him.
he won a medal for himself his country didnt train for the race he did.
@@pcr9253 I think it's more likely that he did it for the country he believed in. He believed in the root ideals of the United States and that is made clear in his winning statements in 1936. The most emotional part of the event for him was when his country's flag was raised and their anthem played.
Even in this video, he states in no uncertain terms how proud he is of his country.
He may be wrong, he may be right. But you cannot say he wasn't patriotic.
@@pcr9253He represented the US and they still accepted the win
usa didn’t appreciate him?
@@Grob-f3d yes
Such a great all around person... not only in sports, but in life
A legend and a hero !!
I love the way he speaks
Legend.
I wish they included his quote here about going back to where you came from in the Race movie about him. They could've put it at the end, but still a great film.
His voice is so soothing, one of the most inspiring man of History
Hello from Saskatchewan 🙂❤️
How do you even pronounce it just curious
Eh bud, you must see a lot of moose out there in Saskatchewan don’t ya knooo
He sounds so educated
Imagine an athlete speaking this well today.
Watch the movie about Jesse Owens, “Race”. It’s very, very well done; basically a track & field version of “42”. A fascinating man and a national hero.
I was born sept 12 and have the same aspirations Jesse Owens had during his lifetime. I happen to want to move to Chicago. Maybe I am a reincarnation.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH
@@albking2150 right lol
Wonderful ! Maybe your are his reincarnation. Thanks for the share!
@@higherresolution4490 thanks, or maybe kindred soul. I had a German roommate in college. We became very good friends.
they’re missing mask.
The racism he endured in his own country I'm sure more than fueled his drive and determination. But here we are in 2023, that racism hasn't gone away in the US in the least though, has it? 87 years later. The more things change...
If you think racism is anywhere near what it was back then you are delusional. By claiming that we are a racist country still today you are causing division. Racist things happen but racist country we are not everyone lives by works plays go's to school with so many people of color around them you can't even count. All the people of color I have in my family or work with or have known my entire lives are doing great and they have not fought some battle against racism all their lives. They don't believe that. But I hear alot of WHITE people talking about how bad racism is. Kinda backwards.
Jessie Owen talks in rhyme
..but does he talk like
that all the time
.. in rhyme
.....but is he telling us the truth
🙄
shut up
2:12 what was that thing? A woman?
