There were some leaders that exploited and exacerbated those divisions to further their means.
I grew up near Chicago in the same time period.
Sure hope no offense has been taken by my question.

Did you assume I was black?
The reason I ask is from you asking me my position on Blacks shunning Christianity, on account of being made into slaves by the europeans.
Also, from your comment that my response of saying caucasion, instead of white..was 'archaic'.
For the record. The Nation of Islam, was predominately militant. Malcom X disconnected himself from that branch, after he travelled to Mecca, and discovered that his mentor Elihja Muhammad was not teaching Islam properly.
He was assasinated for his decision.
* Of note> buzz-word for militant black Islamists when referring to whites is 'European'..not caucasion.
