AAAAARGH MLK jr.’s method of protest was only successful because it was the “good cop” to black nationalism’s “bad cop.” It was the threat of Malcolm X’s “by any means necessary” that drove the liberal establishment to begrudgingly accept desegregation.
This strategy is explicitly understood and taught by Peace Studies academics as a legitimate method of protest strategy, one that has repeatedly created positive, if limited, change. The only reason to obscure it is either ignorance, malice, or both.
What to the Violence Studies academics think of it?
