I asked a black guy at work about this and his comment was that black folk didn't choose those two as "leaders," white people chose them for the black community. IDK, maybe some of our AA brethren can chime in on that statement.
I already did. IMO I think some white people believe this for no other reason than they heard someone else say it. I don't watch MSNBC, CNN, or FOX so I don't know how much they appear on TV to discuss issues like these.
FWIW I've never heard another black person refer to AL Sharpton or Jesse Jackson as leader.

This.
We know who they are, but they DAMN sure don't speak for all black people. Perish the thought.

why are they at the front and center of these "controversies" every time then? every time we have one of these they both end up as the mouthpiece of the family.
