  • As we sat with Olympic gold medalist Billy Mills, his tales of perseverance against adversity struck a chord, reminding us of the power of belief and the human spirit's resilience. This episode takes you through Billy's journey from a boy facing prejudice and personal health battles to the glorious moment where he clinched the gold at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. His story, immortalized in the film "Running Brave," isn't just an athletic feat; it's a beacon for challenging prejudice and embracing inclusivity, which resonates deeply in today's world.

    The adversity Billy experienced is a stark reflection of the historical and systemic challenges that still impact indigenous communities. Our discussion spans from the Doctrine of Discovery's role in the subjugation of native peoples to the contemporary struggles against land theft and racial injustice. Billy's race wasn't solely for the gold—it was a sprint for identity, a marathon for democracy, and a relay for diversity, all of which continue to shape the legacy he builds beyond the track. Join us as we explore how sharing these stories can educate and inspire action towards a more just society.

    Beyond the race, Billy's life has been one of giving back. In this episode, he shares the inception of Running Strong for American Indian Youth, an organization dedicated to supporting indigenous communities. We also celebrate the shared respect and friendships fostered through sports, highlighted by Billy's bond with his fellow competitor Muhammad. From the lighter moments of discovering new fruits to planning for summer events and birthdays, this conversation with Billy Mills is an uplifting blend of victory, unity, and the pursuit of a life lived with purpose and intention.
