Upcoming Events

Dr. Tommie Smith was the 200 meter champion in the 19th Olympiad in Mexico City with a time of 19.83 seconds, which was a world record until 1979 and an Olympic record until 1984. Yet with God-given talent, and encouragement to excel, Tommie Smith was propelled into human rights spokesman-ship long before it became a popular cause. His concern was for the plight of African-Americans and others at home and abroad. Cheered by some, jeered by others, and ignored by many more, Tommie Smith made a commitment to dedicate his life, even at great personal risk to champion the cause of African-American-sociologically, educationally, morally, athletically, financially, and spiritually. To this day, since the "Stand for Victory," Tommie Smith remains as committed and as dedicated to principles which are God-blessed.
