Thanks for sharing. I did not know too much about John Carlos before your blog entry. I found it interesting. I have read the book "Silent Gesture" about Tommie Smith, who together with John Carlos, participated in protest. I enjoyed that book very much and if you haven't already read it I recommend it.

Thanks always for all the bits of information that you share on the blog.
