Which notable leaders or major figures of the civil rights movement advocated for violence, threatened violence, or encouraged threats to achieve meaningful progress? What are some notable, pivotal events in the civil rights movement that were significant to history and were underscored by the threat of violence?
Personally, I feel that the civil rights movement was a significantly more polarized and divisive time for the American people. The movement we need today has significantly less people standing in the way from my perspective.
Which notable leaders or major figures of the civil rights movement advocated for violence
Not what I actually said. I was talking about protests. The leaders, even if they know violence might be necessary, will not openly advocate for it. They will speak with a degree of plausible deniability. Or they’re John Brown.

What is your perspective worth? Where you there in the 60s? From an academic perspective, it looks the same.
Me: What are some notable, pivotal events in the civil rights movement that were significant to history and were underscored by the threat of violence?
In your eyes, what protests or events in the civil rights movement (that generally threatened violence or resulted in violence) led to a significant shift or significant movement?
I was expecting you to fill the gap in my American public school education. You can also direct me to a book or any resources that help me to understand your perspective better, particularly from a historical standpoint.
What is your perspective worth?
My perspective is worth just as much as anybody else’s. Everybody who cares about the present and future likely wants solutions and change in some form or another. Some people think violence is necessary, some people don’t.
MLK did his best to be the change he wanted to see. Not everybody listened and he isn’t responsible for everyone’s actions. There is no mistaking that many in power found MLK to be a threat… why was he seen as dangerous though? Why was he targeted so viciously if he only championed nonviolence and civil disobedience?
The rich and powerful do not want people who bridge gaps and advocate joining hands in solidarity, that’s why. We are far easier to control and lord over when we are fighting each other, especially over differences and inconsequential things.
