The ways in which people are able to keep the changes in the local community continuous is because of the capability to work continuously. People communicating, organizing, collaborating, planning, executing, and documenting, are building on a single lifeblood: work.
That work does not fall from the sky, but continues through the community activities. Take, for instance, religious institutions in a community during the Civil Rights era. People, unknown and ‘dead and gone’, even forgotten, worked together.
Many people fed up with the lynching, the racism, and the ideologies driven by hatred, individually and collectively, gathered together in collectives. They fought for rights. We bear the fruit of their seeds.
Malcolm X had a righteous indignation and compared white people to literal devils. Martin Luther King preached love. Malcolm X, in his later years, began to mirror the generalized philosophy and feeling love of MLK.
They were able to attain a lot because they represented masses of people, collective of citizens, desirous of a better future.
