A social media campaign to raise money and awareness for charities promoting universal equality
Today, global sports company PUMA is supporting #THIRDSALUTE, a new social media movement through which it will generate funds for charities promoting universal equality and human rights.

#THIRDSALUTE will be kicked off by Olympic Champion Tommie Smith and is directly inspired by his famous silent gesture at the 1968 Olympic Games, exactly 50 years ago. After he received his gold medal, Smith bowed his head and raised his fist in a silent gesture, which drew attention to human rights abuses and discrimination. Upon leaving the stadium, he faced boos from the crowd, but he stood by his statement and bravely raised his fist a second time. #THIRDSALUTE will bring together celebrities from the worlds of sports and entertainment to post a picture of themselves online, raising their fists just like Tommie Smith did.
