It seems to me that they are promoting much more than equal rights but legal racism.

The problem is that the people who should be leaders in the black community won't step up and they keep getting stuck with these racist morons Jackson and Sharpton. They have a right to be upset about Jena but they won't be taken serious as long as those two jerks are the ones the public sees leading the way.

Yeah. Every time a black person gets accused of something, (even if it was a terrible murderous thing) these two stand up and claim people are picking on him just because he's black.
I am surprised they're not already jumping on poor OJ's bandwagon. But, I haven't seen the news yet today. Maybe they are.

which leaders and events are you refering to?
I think all leaders go to far. As to black leaders, the only ones im well versed in are al sharpton and jesse jackson, and yes, they go to far every time they open their mouths. They are 2 of the most racist voices in american politics.

The more racism there is the more power they have over the black community.

They dont want equality under the law, they want special treatment. MLK wanted a color blind society not one that harps on race at every turn

Maybe, some times they get a little carried away.
