Magnum Photographers 

The 1968 Summer Olympics, held in Mexico City, officially opened on October 12. The first Olympic Games held in Latin America were marked by government repression, civil rights demonstrations, and the Mexican Student Movement of 1968. During these Olympics, U.S. Olympians Tommie Smith and John Carlos raised their black-gloved fists during a medal ceremony at the 1968 Mexico City Olympic Games, Black Power salute that kicked them off the US team.
