In 1984, Peter Westbrook (1952 – 2024) became the first Black person to win an Olympic medal in fencing for the United States. It was
the first time an American had earned a U.S. fencing medal since 1960, and it wasn’t until 2004 that the US
would win another one in fencing. #PeterWestbrook #fencing #fencinglegend
