Go and talk to some black people (interesting proposition hunh). Ask them who their leaders are, who mobilizes them to action--better yet, listen too what the black people who post here are saying--and then reevaluate your notion of black community leadership, because it is wrong.
But I guess we probably can't tell you that because our experience doesn't mean anything in the face of your "supposed" empirical evidence.
