How did Hitler react when Jesse Owens won the 100 meter race?

History

Naddik [55]2 years ago

Hitler left the stadium before the medals were awarded. The 100 meter race was the first of Owens' four medals. It shocked Hitler: his Aryan supremacy myth was in tatters. The only thing worse that could have happened was a Jew winning that first race. He likely didn't want to shake Owens' hand.

Actually Owens was not scheduled to race in the 400 meter relay. It came about only because the American Olympic Committee didn't want to cause an international uproar by allowing 2 Jews to run in the 400. So they replaced both with Owens and Metcalf (who took home a slug of metals himself).

I'm not sure if it is still on Netflix, but a docudrama of the event was made called RACE.

What reasons did the USSR have for stealing<br> the secret to making nukes?
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The reasons why the USSR stole the secret of how to create nuclear warheads can be found in the Cold War.

America, the main adversary of the Soviets during the Cold War period, was a country that had demonstrated its nuclear capabilities to the world in 1945, with the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Therefore, it possessed the necessary technology to end an armed conflicts almost immediately and, consequently, its political power was enormous against countries without nuclear capacity.

The Soviet Union, then, had to equate its military forces if it wanted to politically equate itself with the United States. That is, if it managed to have the same threatening power as the United States, it would have similar political power.
