The White Man In that Photo
"It’s a historic photo of two men of color. For this reason I never really paid attention to the other man, white, like me, motionless on the second step of the medal podium. I considered him as a random presence, an extra in Carlos and Smith’s moment, or a kind of intruder. Actually, I even thought that that guy – who seemed to be just a simpering Englishman – represented, in his icy immobility, the will to resist the change that Smith and Carlos were invoking in their silent protest. But I was wrong."

There used to be wallabies in Derbyshire.
So he could have been a dwarf from Buxton.

There once was a dwarf from Buxton
Given wallabies he would cook them
He kept lots of sheep
But not for their meat
As in Derby they liked to fuck 'em.

I think that was the point
...as he then went on to explain that he was incorrect in his first summation
