There is a beautiful Ed Sorel cartoon on a 1969 cover of Time magazine which I've been trying to put on here for years. Since there are plenty of other Time covers all over the place in Wikipedia, why not here?Ericl (talk) 11:58, 19 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

For clarity, can someone sort out the parts of that reference? This is a guess:
{{cite journal|last=Lizzi|first=Maria C.|title='My Heart Is as Black as Yours': White Backlash, Racial Identity, and Italian American Stereotypes in New York City's 1969 Mayoral Campaign|date=18 September 2008|journal=Journal of American Ethnic History|volume=27|page=3}}
which expands as:
Lizzi, Maria C. (18 September 2008). "'My Heart Is as Black as Yours': White Backlash, Racial Identity, and Italian American Stereotypes in New York City's 1969 Mayoral Campaign". Journal of American Ethnic History. 27: 3.
In re: "Procaccino made a gaffe by saying, "My heart is as black as yours'" he would also say that his running mate, Francis X. Smith, "grows on you like a cancer."
I was all of 29 in 1969, living in NYC. If [1] serves those two lines were uttered by Abe Beame, not by Procaccino, and perhaps not that year. This is worth double-checking.
