Ikonisk øyeblikk. Som norske utøvere ikke ønsker

16. oktober 1968: Tommie Smith og John Carlos gjør idrettshistoriens mest berømte politiske demonstrasjon på seierspallen under OL i Mexico. Den viste idrettens politiske kraft.

FILE - In this Oct. 16, 1968 file photo, U.S. athletes Tommie Smith, center, and John Carlos raise their gloved fists after Smith received the gold and Carlos the bronze for the 200 meter run at the Summer Olympic Games in Mexico City. The International Olympic Committee published guidelines Thursday, Jan. 9, 2020 specifying which types of athlete protests will not be allowed at the 2020 Tokyo Games. Athletes are prohibited by the Olympic Charter's Rule 50 from taking a political stand in the field of play — like the raised fists by American sprinters Tommie Smith and John Carlos at the 1968 Mexico City Games.
