Nazis discover Jewish critic of black supremacism

The Counter-Currents site has just reviewed Lionel Lokos’ book, The New Racism, published in 1971. I had reviewed it at NSU/WEJB in 2018.
N.S. Of related interest, in 1995, Chronicles magazine published my first exposé of so-called ebonics, “Black English.” Thomas Sowell thought quite a bit of it, but not enough to personally contact me, or mention me in print. However, he did ask one of his researchers at Hoover to contact me. He was wondering what my source about black supremacist violence at Washington, D.C.’s Federal City College, circa 1970, was. The researcher was a lady of a certain age, who popped a postcard into an envelope with her query. I was glad to help her, but an acknowledgement from Sowell would have been nice.

Years before your exposé of "Black English" the theater critic John Simon demolished Geneva Smitherman's defense of it on William Buckley's TV show "Firing Line." When Simon was accused of having condemned it after having presented a only few awful specimens of it, Simon retorted that one didn't need more than a swallow to recognize water that had come from a cesspool [or something to that effect].
By the way, Simon, born in Subotica, Serbia and of Hungarian descent, lived in Belgrade until the age of 16 before coming to the United States. His elegant English had only a slight hint of a foreign accent. Although he was known (and hated) as a caustic theater critic, I found him very cordial on my one encounter with him, when I called him on some matter. His phone number in New York City was listed with directory information.
