• The schemes to set up blacks in cleaning stores, gas stations, hamburger stands and fried-chicken franchises, all the low-profit, low-capital enterprises, will rivet the Black man to the least remunerative section of the economy forever.

The big money ain't in pumping rationed gas in an Amoco station leased in your very own name, but in having stock in Exxon.
