Only the obtuse and un-researched believe this.
People need a history lesson and contemporary lesson on politics and movements.
Organizations like the NAACP, NPHC GLOs, and the Urban League were among the voices of civil rights and components of women's rights and worker's rights movements. The founders and majority of earlier members of these organizations were among a privileged group and, some people like WEB DuBois would argue, intellectual elite.
