Black Power, Cultural Nationalism and White Backlash

Below is the paper you wrote for me, but I need another page added to this one. Same concept and everything. If you could stay on track with what you have already written.

The Black Power movement had similar objectives to that of the civil rights. Both entities wanted America to recognize all races as equal without discriminatory practices against minorities such as African Americans. Unlike the tolerant civil rights movement leaders, black power pioneers believed in a vicious and impatient approach. black power movement successfully pressurized the society to respect racial equality because they popularized the idealism of black supremacy through confrontational strategies.
Revolutionaries such as Stokely Carmichael agitated for nationalism or separatism as long as Africans would acquire their rightful liberty. Most of the black power adherents argued that the black community would not live in a free society as long as white privilege was the norm (Ogbar 2018, 36).[1] Unlike the civil rights movement that believed in nonviolent pressurization, black power was uncompromising, as evidenced in the assertion that a peaceful revolution is a fallacy. Guided by the attitude of courageous icons such as Malcolm X, the black power movement formulated factions such as the armed Black Panther Party that deployed the same confrontational tactics to popularize the philosophy of freedom for African Americans (Austin 2017, 14).[2] Violence would coerce the rest of the country to avail of improved conditions for blacks alongside the institution of survival programs.
The black power movement represented the frustrations of African Americans at the slow pace of liberating African Americans. The movement wanted the country to recognize blacks as equal to Caucasians in critical areas such as the labor force. Unlike previous leaders such as Dr. King, black power did not fancy peaceful marches because they were not putting maximum pressure on the authorities. Black Panther Party is the embodiment of the black power philosophy of optimal pressure through violent resistance.
