San Francisco, California Jan 13, 2026 (Issuewire.com) Author and peace advocate Christie Sikora announces the release of BLOOD and GOLD: Athletes, Tragedies and Dynamism to Peace, a deeply researched and uncompromising examination of the 1972 Munich Olympicsone of the most consequential and misunderstood moments in modern history.

With clarity, precision, and moral courage, Sikora reexamines the tragedy to uncover buried truths, long-standing injustices, and the political and media failures that shaped global perception for decades. Moving beyond official narratives, BLOOD and GOLD restores humanity to athletes and victims whose stories were eclipsed by headlines, ideology, and silence.
