It's an iconic image from the '68 Mexico City games: Tommie Smith and John Carlos bow their heads and raise their firsts on the podium. Though the pair endures as symbols of dissent, the meaning of their salute has evolved, and its legacy is complicated.

Hosted by Molly Bloom. Produced by FilmNation Entertainment in association with Gilded Audio.
