Sharpton and Benjamin crump are the defacto spokes-people for black people right now. The only way that will change is if someone even more acceptable takes the lead and is accepted by the rest of society as well. Maybe Oprah?That would be nice.[sarcasm]

even more acceptable?than Sharpton??Any group that hitches their wagons to Sharpton doesn't deserve any respect. And this is especially true when the issue is social division. You can't put out the fire with gasoline.

BLM needs a new leader/spokes-person instead of Sharpton. We need someone who both blacks and whites trust. Too many non-blacks do not trust him for him to be maximally afective.
Jussie Smollet, come on down!
Meh. I'm not going to tell them who they need as a spokes-person. Honestly... why should they get someone white people trust? Our involvement hasn't made it any more effective in the past.

I won't tell them either, I just think they need someone who is respected by everyone. Kinda, but not really, like someone of real stature like MLK was in his time. Sharpton is not trustworthy to way too many non-blacks.
I’m thinking maybe Joe Biden.
