Only white men, though. They, as a cohort, definitely had it easy like no one else. Particularly straight able-bodied Christians.
not true. as a matter of fact creating a black upper class was a key strategy to break the direction and unity of the civil rights movement.
That could apply to individuals, like you said, but you can't apply it broadly like you can apply privileges to white men.
Furthermore, they're doing the same thing today so that literally hasn't even changed.
But defeating the civil rights movement was more about killing off the leaders.
