I watched this doco on a plane a year or so ago and I still think about it. If an Australian today won the silver medal in the 200 metres at the Olympics he would be a national hero. Not only did Peter Norman do this he had the guts to stand up for the greater good of black rights...to be ostracised was a crime and was complete madness by the Australian Olympic management at the time and in 72 and in 2000...unbelievable..
Full credit to Matt Norman and the family for telling the story..thank you for making the effort as it moved me....
