IMO, just mine, though.
You gotta remember too you only know what you know at the time the knowledge is in front of you.
I agree there was a level of cowardice but... I try not to be too hard on our elders about this situation because Its deeper than just complacency.
I agree with you that they were close, but I think they knew how close they were but here's the kicker, they got that close by generation talent leadership
Leadership/allies was systematically dismantled. Medgar Evers, Panthers, Dr King, Brother malcolm, JFK. They killed them broad day and dismantled the would be replacing leadership. Real time mane, during a time this wont happening like this on american soil like this.I feel like our elders gamble was get equal resources and use that to develop at the same quality of life as them (just off the paper optics), and expected a successor to Dr King but it never came.People saw they killed a tough stance orator and killed a nonviolent one (ik he wasnt pacisifst though ijs).
But I humbly disagree that nikkas stopped though, I think CRM just broke down into more, smaller interpersonal froma leadership stand point. We still got on page enough to organize a million man march event even into the 90s. Though,I think brother malcolm murder was the nail in the coffin though imo NOI assassination involvement, the double agendas/infighting exposed and a lot of people got put on front street.. alot from hoover meddling and they traded victory for acceptance.
