I chose picture 39. In this picture Jesse Owens is captured being honored for one of his gold metals. He beat a Nazi German man and a Japanese athlete as well. The irony in this medal stand is amazing. Because in two short years the 3 countries would be fighting a war against each other. And the winner of the Gold- Metal would also win the war; that is some serious foreshadowing.
