I didn't forget. The liberals were telling civil rights protesters that they needed to be patient, that they needed to wait.

The conservatives were blocking civil rights and the liberals were stalling it.

The government doesn't lead change; it merely ratifies when when that changed is forced by very sharp and determined activists.

Look, ordinary unarmed people, starting with very small numbers, have repeatedly ousted cruel and violent dictators. Not because those dictators were sympathetic liberals.

Real movements overcome obstacles. And THEY lead.
