Radical Civil Rights
  1. Moderate Failures
    1. MLK did not appeal to all African Americans. He was a southerner and was viewed as someone from the black elite (due to his status as a Baptist Minister)
      1. This meant working Class Black people were able to more easily identify with Malcolm X
        1. Many people only followed MLK's strategy for Pragmatic purposes (i.e. Hosea Williams) and thus, when it appeared to have acheived all it could, many followers dropped the principle
        2. King failed to realise how racist working class Northern White People were until his campaign moved north. This was best shown when MLK took the SCLC to Detroit and was met with hostility
          1. The White Libearl who'd initially supported him now labbeled his actions 'provactive' and 'irresponsible'
          2. In 1948, Black unemployment was at a low of 5.9%. However by 1954, almost 10% of blacks were jobless, double the rate amongst whites and it would remain this way throughout the 1960’s
            1. After the March through Chicago had forced the City Mayor to accept a 'summit agreement' (as the march had evoked similar violent scenes as seen int he South), he quietly shelved the agreeement later on.
              1. They were used to fighting one dimensional villains like ‘Bull’ Connor and Jim Clark but found Mayor Daley a subtle, skilful politician who opposed the Civil Rights Movement with kind words as opposed to violence
              2. Black Church lacked the prestige it commanded in the South
                1. Number of white people in the North who believed that the Johnson administration was pushing integration ‘to fast’ grew from 28% in April, 1965 to 36% in August 1965 (after Watts) and to 52% in September, 1966
                2. Aims
                  1. Rejected the idea of integration, and by extensionm, rejected the aims of the original Civil Rights Movement
                    1. Does not mean, that his ideas were bad for Civil Rights as it gave many African Americans the pride and confidence to work for change.
                    2. Radical Success
                      1. Radicalism increases as the period goes on
                        1. Early Radical Leader: Marcus Garvey
