Unlikely Story Of An Unlikely Good Australian

The white guy in that fucking awesome photo.  Turns out there's a story there--as found in the comments on Deadspin--and that story is the white guy was a fucking Bogan.  Even worse, the 60s were a time when Australia was a racist shithole out of a Donald Trump wet dream.  Peter Norman, white guy, became a pariah in Australia and remained such long after John Carlos and Tommie Smith became widely acknowledged bad-asses.  So, against all reason and experience, the world has to say there was at least one good Australian.  Seriously, those convict motherfuckers are worse than Canadians.
