Bayard Rustin, together with Martin Luther King organized the famous march on Washington that eventually expanded civil liberties of African-Americans.
Michael Jackson unrecognizably changed the world of music.
Thurgood Marshall, though his work on the US Supreme Court advanced the cause of freedom and human rights.
Foreign Secretary Condolizza Rice definitely contributed to many changes in the world, although not necessarily in the right direction.
The same can be said about Colin Powell.
The list can go on and on, I just don't remember everyone.

Huey Newton, Martin Luther King, Jr., Fredrick Douglass, Muhammed Ali, Malcom X, Maya Angelou, Condaleeza Rice, Rosa Parks, off the top of my head.
My apologies, Bob. I certainly know my history, but had just finished helping my cousin with a paper on apartheid, and my brain was in 2 different places. I'm sure that's never happened to you. It was Huey Newton I was going for...
