“I won a silver medal. But really, I ended up running the fastest race of my life…” — Peter Norman

I always had my views on racial tolerance. I couldn't see why anyone would dislike or to the nth degree hate someone simply because they were a different color.

What we do to our native Australians, our own indigenous people, is nothing short of horrific.

I think most Australians would favor what I did. At least I hope they do.

I couldn't see why a black man wasn't allowed to drink out of the same water fountain or sit in the same bus or go to the same schools as a white guy.
