What's your opinion on the lack of a national Black leader or leaders?

You know we always hear, "Where are the Black Leaders" or "Who is Leading the Black voice"? We use to have prominent and identifiable "Black Leaders" in the 50's 60's, 70's, and even the early 80's. But now, nothing.

Yeah, yeah, we all now that one Black person or a few persons can't speak for ALL BLACK people (we wouldn't have it), but that never stopped folks from taking center stage during the CRM.

So, be honest and give your opinion as to why no one is willing to Stand up or Step out onto the stage of burning lights and become that recognizable "Black Voice".

Why are possible/ perspective and capable Black leaders so unwilling and refusing to take the weight of the podium ad mic? Is it because Whites and the Media would kill them or is it because WE would kill them just the same?
