    Whether or not people claimed it worked or not. Every right in the world was claimed with some amount of violence. You don’t get the peaceful protest working until after some violence or violence from other places for the same rights helping.

    People claim MLK Jr peaceful protest won black civil rights to peaceful wash history. The government and world are trying to erase the black panther movement and the violence that was apart of civil rights.

      Total claptrap.

      “Just because historians say a thing I disagree with doesn’t mean I will stop claiming the opposite without addressing the content of their arguments.”

      Brilliant. You’ve won me over.

        …it isn’t historians. But government approved learning programs in schools. They want to erase violence and normal people rising up. I never learned about the black panthers in public schools. I only heard MLK Jr. Sat at white bars and Rosa parks Sat in a bus then he held a march then it was allll better.

        Oh you are the one with the link to 30 ways peaceful protest worked…that lists throwing tea into the harbor worked lol. Ok.
