Answer:

James Owens' actions in the Summer Olympics were heroic because he won four gold medals in track and field and set a record proving to Hitler that "Aryans" were not a superior race as Hitler claimed it to be.

Despite his victory, Owens was called racial slurs and mistreated in Berlin and his own country. Back in the US, he still had to suffer the consequences of racial segregation and not receiving job offers after his victory.

A hero should be treated in the complete opposite way to how Jesse Owens was treated. A hero should be recognized and honored every day for his or her actions nationally and internationally.

Explanation:

Jesse Owens was an African American athlete. He participated in the Summer Olympic Games that took place in Berlin under Adolf Hitler's power.

Even though Hitler and other people were against Jewish and athletes of color in the games, Owens participated and won four gold medals and set a record, which proved to all the racist people that white Europeans, also known as the Aryans race, were not superior. Despite his victories, he did not receive the recognition that he deserved in the US due to social segregation.
