Jesse Owens' parents, Henry and Mary Owens, worked on a farm in Alabama. Henry was a sharecropper, which involved working the land for a landowner in exchange for a share of the crops. Mary Owens also contributed to the family's income by working various jobs, including as a domestic worker. Their hard work and perseverance influenced Jesse's determination and eventual success in athletics.
