İngilizce - İngilizce
a very successful black US athlete, who won four gold medals at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin. This disproved the Nazi idea that the 'Aryans' (=white people from Northern Europe) were better than people of other races. Hitler refused to attend the ceremonies at which Owens was given his gold medals (1913-80). orig. James Cleveland Owens born Sept. 12, 1913, Oakville, Ala., U.S. died March 31, 1980, Phoenix, Ariz. U.S. track-and-field athlete. At Ohio State University in 1935, he broke or equaled four world track records in one day, setting a new long-jump record that would stand for 25 years. In the 1936 Olympics in Berlin he won four gold medals, tying the Olympic record in the 100-m run, breaking the Olympic record in the 200-m run, running the final segment for the world-record-breaking U.S. 400-m relay team, and breaking the listed world record for the long jump. This performance by an African American dramatically foiled Adolf Hitler's intention to use the games to show Aryan racial superiority. For a time, Owens held alone or shared the world records for all sprint distances recognized by the International Amateur Athletic Federation
(1913-1980) African-American track and field athlete, winner of multiple Olympic gold medals and former world record holder
