Can't compare SCLC-run protests to the LA protests and ignore that SCLC was heavily trained and chose the terrain for facing down police carefully. Given that the feds decided to escalate against a group of random civilians in LA, I think the protestors are mostly showing remarkable forebearance.

When the Southern Christian Leadership Conference was founded in August 1957, leaders chose to rent space directly below WERD. This gave the SCLC direct access to a mass communication tool that white-owned media routinely denied them, right in the economic and cultural center of Black Atlanta. /8

Superb opinion piece on PCI in SCLC: do we need it in the IO era?
Key points:
- PCI optional in ES SCLC IO trials
- MRI surveillance acceptable in non IO era
- in LS SCLC, Adriatic showed PCI beneficial in IO & non IO arms

The SCLC raised 205k in 1963, which is about 2.2 million in 2025 dollars. That’s simply not very much in modern terms.
That’s not a knock on the SCLC, whose achievement is monumental. But we’re working with vastly larger movements today.

Once I saw MG give a talk about Occupy Wall Street and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, arguing that Occupy failed because it wasn't centralized like SCLC under Martin Luther King. Then, in the Q&A, Henry Louis Gates politely nuked MG to ashes for not knowing anything about MLK or SCLC.

The EXTENTORCH trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of toripalimab combined with chemotherapy as a 1stL tx for patients with extensive-stage SCLC
Toripalimab improved PFS and OS compared to placebo, with a median OS of 14.6 months versus 13.3 months

LMAO imagine saying that MLK, a reverend and doctor of theology, would oppose bringing religion into his protest activities. Like what does he think SCLC stood for?
Matt Taibbi criticizes the ICE protests in Minneapolis, and says Martin Luther King Jr. would not have approved of them.
Taibbi claims MLK would not support "guilt because of racial identity" or "bringing religion into it".

Sinatra has gone woke
![Civil rights activism
From the 1940s Sinatra refused to perform for segregated audiences. In Las Vegas he forced the Sands to serve Nat King Cole in the dining room and, with Sammy Davis Jr., ended Jim Crow policies in Nevada hotels and casinos by
1961. 9! He headlined Carnegie Hall for Martin Luther King Jr. in 1961, led Rat Pack boycotts, donated heavily to SCLC and voter registration, and was praised by Vice President Humphrey after the Watts riots for teaching tolerance."] Orson Welles witnessed Sinatra physically
threaten a restaurant owner who refused service to a Black musician.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:of56nmyuqzvjta7qlf7gwht6/bafkreihcwqha74luvn5td5tugqr4welplshkdqtabytg7ohgc23we7aedm)

And while I'm up, you can't measure the number of participants in the CRM by comparing the March on Washington with a particular No Kings march, or even aggregating. How many people donated to SCLC and SNCC? How many did local organizing? How many people wore pro–civil rights pins?

A lot of people mistakenly conflate "non-violent" with "non-disruptive" and/or "exclusively legal". SCLC, SNCC, CORE, etc all were very willing to undertake very disruptive and legally dubious non-violent activities.
It's unfortunate that the history of the Civil Rights movement has been rewritten as "We marched peacefully until our enemies grew a conscience".
MLK and SNCC accomplished a major shift in policy using a deliberate, low-grade insurgency carried out with incredible skill and decades-long strategy.
