Where is the MLK of 2020? I want to see someone who can go beyond their anger and have a plan and lead.

  So they can be assassinated? Good plan. (sarcasm indicator. It is not a good plan at all.)

  MLK was despised by white America of his time, _because_ of his leadership of protests.

  You remember a few years back when some athletes took knelt during the national anthem? And they were told to "shut up and dribble" and the president said they were sons of bitches and should be fired? [1] There's your peaceful leadership right there.

    If you're black in the US, there's just no correct way to protest. Street protests get painted as riots (and often turn into riots due to excessive police response fanning the flames), quiet personal protests are claimed to be disrespectful (since when is kneeling a sign of disrespect?), speak up and they get told to shut up. There's no way to win.

  There are many of them. They dont get media coverage. They "miss the cutoff" for debates. The party doesnt give them a chance. Even so called "liberal media" do hit jobs on them. Then, people who are complacent complain no one is trying.
