Seven members of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. competed in Berlin and won 13 medals, shattering the “master race” myth on the world stage.

When they returned home, there was no telegram.
No White House invite.

As Jesse Owens said:
“Hitler didn’t snub me. It was our president who snubbed me.”

That president was Franklin D. Roosevelt.
