...higher levels, at least, black protest sometimes bears a surprising resemblance to black capitalism. Last week, for instance, the Internal Revenue Service disclosed a claim against Expatriate Stokely Carmichael, former chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, and his wife, Singer Miriam Makeba, for $48,193 in income taxes for 1968 and 1969.
