“#BlackLivesMatter: the birth of a new civil rights movement”
write an argumentative essay.
-There is a substantial difference between a younger generation of social activists who have been at the forefront of the #Blacklivesmatter movements and older generation of Civil Rights Leaders. Organizers for #Blacklivesmatter events usually resist commentary from figures such as Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson at their events, saying that they are from a bygone era. The movement is also open about rejecting the Civil Right movement’s structure of hierarchical leadership, usually with a charismatic male as the face and voice of the movement (e.g. Dr. Martin Luther King during the 60s and Jesse Jackson in the 80s.)
