Story0
On the night in 1964 that Muhammad Ali (then known as Cassius Clay) stepped into the ring with Sonny Liston, he was widely regarded as an irritating freak who danced and talked way too much. Six rounds later Ali was not only the new world heavyweight boxing champion: He was "a new kind of black man" who would shortly transform America's racial politics, its popular culture, and its notions of heroism. No one has captured Ali—and the era that he exhilarated and sometimes infuriated—with greater vibrancy, drama, and astuteness than David Remnick.

5 settembre 1972, ore 4:30, villaggio olimpico di Monaco di Baviera. Un commando palestinese di Settembre nero fa irruzione negli alloggi della squadra israeliana. Comincia così la pagina più tragica della storia delle Olimpiadi e si concluderà 20 ore dopo con 17 morti. In quella squadra c'è anche Shaul Ladany, marciatore che, bambino, fu deportato a Bergen-Belsen, il campo in cui morì Anna Frank. Per la seconda volta Ladany sopravvive alla Storia. La sua vita è stata una lunga sequenza di passi, quasi un Forrest Gump che ha attraversato il XX secolo.

In a world where online scrutiny is more intense than ever, Elise’s story massively transcends sport. Having been bullied while growing up in Scotland, Christie first felt the full weight of online public opinion following three separate disqualifications at the 2014 Winter Olympics. Death threats followed amid a torrent of online hate whereby she was accused of having caused a rival South Korean medal hopeful to crash. Christie, aged just 24, retreated into a period of mental health support to assist her through extremely traumatic times.

But in competition no single athlete mirrored the free-thinking 1960s better than Dick Fosbury, a failed prep high jumper who invented an offbeat style that ultimately won him a gold medal and revolutionized the event. No jumpers today use any other style than his.
