A Big Day For Shani

Shani Davis

Southside native Shani Davis became the first African American to win a gold medal in the Winter Olympics on saturday, when he cruised to victory in the 1000m men's speed skating. On his victory lap, he gave a nod to his hood, wearing a Sox cap.

Congrats! What an incredible honor. So far, near as I can tell, this is the best story to come out of Turin...
