Make A Difference Minute: Beyond the Gold

On this Make a Difference Minute, I have Teague McKay, educator at the Jesse Owens Museum in Danville, Alabama, as we look beyond the four gold medals Jesse Owens won 90 years ago in Berlin.

Teague shares a part of Owens’ story that can easily be overshadowed by his athletic accomplishments was his devotion to family. From working after school in Cleveland to worrying about how he would continue helping his family while attending Ohio State, responsibility followed Jesse throughout his journey.

It’s a reminder that Jesse Owens’ legacy is about much more than what he accomplished on the track.
