Description
On 10 September 1960, Abebe Bikila, an Ethiopian, won the Rome Olympic marathon running barefoot. Overnight he became a sporting hero, an African hero. Four years later in Tokyo, he repeated his success. This would make for a good story alone but Bikila was a man of his times, a symbol of hope in the new Africa.
