“Boy we won! This medal belongs to our family!”. Among other things, this is what the father of Emmanuel Karalis, who made all of Greece proud by winning the bronze medal in the pole vault at the Olympic Games in Paris, says in an emotional post.
The father of the great athlete, Haris Karalis, made a post about his son’s journey, referring to the struggles he also had with racism.
“Our trial is a VICTORY! We fought battles and won them! We conquered our fears, we fought demons, we conquered racism and the abyss that almost swallowed us! And YES we came out WINNERS! My son, there is a better world and you belong to it!” notes thanking Pomaski, Scepanski and Christos Meletoglou for supporting Emmanuel.
