Was the SCLC founded by Dr. King? I have at least one booksource tht says he fouded it. -SeanWDP
"Southern could be related to by all people in the south of the USA, Christian could be related to all Christians across the USA, Leadership could relate to all leaders in the USA and Conference was wisely used as a conference does not exclude anyone, which the word 'Organization' could have." This last sentence needs a rewrite imho. The wording and pattern to it seem very silly. -- 71.198.23.38 01:58, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Agreed. The use of the term: "USA" seems childish as dose the entire explanation. The entire article needs vast improvement. -- Gusbenz
"The most well known Member of the SCLC was Jesse Jackson, who led the organization until he was assassinated on April 4th 1968."
Umm.. shouldn't that say Martin Luther King?

Hi User:Randy Kryn. I notice you've reverted my edit, with the comment, "...nonviolent actions weren't basically civil disobedience but things like standing in line, walking, etc."
The reason I deleted the words "nonviolence" and "nonviolent" wasn't because I think they're the same thing as civil disobedience. It was because the sentence read strangely as it stood, as though the NAACP was in favour of using violence (which of course it wasn't) but at the same time was somehow considered less radical. Strip the other actions from the original sentence, try to forget your own knowledge of the specialised meaning of nonviolence, and I think you'll see how it might look to the lay eye: "Because of its dedication to nonviolence...SCLC was considered more "radical" than the older NAACP".
My feeling was that there was enough mention elsewhere in the article of the SLCC's use of nonviolence tactics that it could be omitted here for clarity. If you feel it must be included for comprehensiveness, the sentence probably needs rewriting. Perhaps break it in two? I'm posting here as the next step in the bold, revert, discuss cycle.

The Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) is an African-American civil rights organization. SCLC is closely associated with its first president, Martin Luther King Jr., who had a large role in the American civil rights movement.[1 109.172.183.115 ( talk) 12:59, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
