Are you saying these people were handpicked by the white media?
Who are the black leaders of today? Do We need them?

Not those voices from the 60s. They amplify the voices they want people to follow or the ones that they deem a threat. You figure out the rest.

Jesse and Al were not perfect. but they were 100% better than anyone out now. They were both certified in the community activist streets in their younger days. There is no such thing as a perfect leader. MLK was cheating on his wife and Malcom was a former pimp/ street kat. If they were in the internet era a lot of yall would have been bashing them the say way yall did Al and Jesse.
If there was real leadership then the movement wouldn't have gotten taken over by LGBT, democrats, and corporate interest. Look at the thread talking about where all the BLM money is going.. nobody knows cause there is no leadership and no one to hold accountable. Lack of leadership is the main reason for lack of progress.

Every voice of opposition is a threat tho. I mean we need to define who “they” are that do the amplifying
But if we get together with our own leadership then it doesn't matter who they try to.put up. We tell that person join us or be against us
That makes no sense try that on a child.
If you don't know in 2020 your either a child or a person that doesn't matter.

I'm not trying to be funny at all but our leaders are now athletes and entertainers. A leader can get millions on board You have to remember MLK put in work from age 26-39 he was more then I Have Dream speech. With that being said who do I think can gather people and become a full time activist: I might get bashed for this but if Colin Kaepernick put together a Million Man March I actually think a million + will come out. He doesn't say much but remember most powerful leaders aren't very vocal they simply move. The normal average everyday Joe is gonna have hard time becoming a leader unless he is naturally born with it (Charism,Leadership) etc .

Whew... was about to leave this thread but thankfully some people still thinking

getting blitzed.
Leadership is needed, and at the moment we are currently lacking in that department. Have been lacking for quite sometime.
I just know, whoever steps up will need to be a person of integrity, and a person who isn’t compromised. We’ve got men and women, now, who think they are leaders, but they are bound by the almighty dollar or a political party.

We need more than one leader but we don't need a face on the movement, if that makes sense.
But if we're going to have a face, then he needs to be the most squeaky clean guy with a dark skin wife and pro-lgbt.
Not that I think those things are bad, but he wouldn't survive social media WITHOUT them.
