SUMMARY: Caricature shows civil rights leader Stokely Carmichael as a handsome young black man with long black eyelashes, looking quizzically to his right. Around him are small figures of Ku Klux Kansmen with Confederate battle flags and burning crosses, a sheriff with a fierce dog, and several awed and swooning young white women. Carmichael was the charismatic young head of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee who electrified and changed the course of the civil rights movement by calling for "Black Power," alarming more moderate black leaders who feared he would alienate white supporters. David Levine was perhaps the most influential caricaturist of the latter part of the 20th century, inspiring a whole school of imitators.
