In the run up to this year's Olympic Games, you might be interested to see a fascinating video about Jesse Owens, the American track and field sensation who with his four gold medals and charismatic personality rained on the Nazi's party and Hitler's pretense of Aryan superiority at the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Part of the PBS American Experience series, you can watch this 52-minute video in its entirety online courtesy of Liberty Mutual and the Alfred E. Sloan Foundation.
