Légende
A warm up tack suit jacket worn by Tommie Smith at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. Smith and fellow team-mate John Carlos gave the Black Power clenched-fist salute on the medal podium to protest racism and injustice against African-Americans in the United States, a symbolic moment in the history of the Black Power movement. The jacket is navy blue and has a stand up for fold over collar made out of a rib knit fabric. There is a zipper down the center front of the jacket that can go all the way up the collar.
