I went to high school in the 90s and we were given the impression that the Rosa Parks thing was organic and spontaneous. When I found out later in life that it was carefully engineered by Yankee Jews, it made me that much more disillusioned with social justice movements.

I think my experience is very typical of people my age.

I'm not sure why. I guess it's a nice fairy tale that entrenched power structures can routinely be toppled by dumb luck and chance, but that's not really reflective of reality. If anything, this is a great example of why organized, intentional campaigns are necessary.
