What caused the decline of the civil rights movement?
It is unclear that there has been any decline in the civil rights movement, however the rise of individualism and natural rights has grown to such a point that it overshadows the civil rights movement in many ways. The civil rights movement in its heyday was a visible struggle between oppressed minorities and oppressive majorities. During the 1960's when the civil rights movement was a household name, just like the trippy rock and roll stars that sold the world on rebellion, so there were the superstars of the civil rights movement such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, The Chicago Seven, Eldridge Cleaver and Rosa Parks the Grand Dame of civil rights. These very visible political figures exposed the very real oppression and corruption that existed in the United States and their legacy is heroic. However, as civil rights movements go it is an effort to gain rights for a group of people, rather than rely upon the natural rights inherent in us all. In other words any appeal for a civil right is a request of privilege from the government, any assertion of natural right is a demand of the government that they obey the law and act accordingly. There is the argument that since the natural rights were being denied by the government that the civil rights movement was necessary in order to bring awareness to this unlawful act of oppression and abrogation and derogation of the rights of others but that movement could've just as easily brought the same awareness if they were the natural rights movement fighting not for the rights of certain groups of people but fighting for the rights of individuals and in doing so, fighting for the rights of all. The natural rights movement in many ways began as a necessary response to a civil rights movement that upon finding certain victories looked towards finding new groups to advocate special privileges for and some how the rights of the people became known as civil rights and the liberty all are entitled to became civil liberties and today we hear much talk about how natural rights don't apply in a modern world where governments so benignly grant civil rights and afford the people certain civil liberties. This dilution of natural or common law into some sort of super positive law has fueled a growing community of individualists concerned about their own inherent rights and an out of control government expanding jurisdiction like middle aged people expand their waistlines. It is not healthy for either people to expand their waistlines nor governments to expand their jurisdiction. Both acts become suppressive acts that impede the function of their bodies tremendously so. If there is a decline in the civil rights movement, (and if you ask the American Civil Liberties Union I doubt they'll go into agreement that the movement is in decline), it should not be mourned but celebrated for there is a groundswell of individuals rising up to confront this government and demand they be afforded the opportunity for a redress of grievances and if the people truly want their government back, if they truly want to govern themselves, then they will take back the power the same way they lost it, through either willful or tacit approval, one by one. Let there be a movement to support the individual in his solitary struggle to keep the government from intruding into his life.
