The most prominent among them all pretty much ended up in political office, on the patronage of higher education, or on the patronage of the non-profit blob. One of the few who had an ordinary work life after 1971 was Rap Brown, who owned and operated a specialty grocery store in Atlanta. Alas, he ended up in prison eventually. Among the minority who might have had more agreeable lives if they’d stayed out of extraparliamentary politics are MLK (you could argue), Medgar Evers (lapsed insurance salesman) and Hosea Williams (once a chemist employed by the USDA). IIRC, Medgar Evers widow Myrlie has for the most part lived an ordinary life since 1963.

The civil rights movement may not have “stopped like a spigot turned off” after the 60s but in retrospect it went downhill pretty fast after the assassination of Martin Luther King as the Jacksons and Sharptons took over.

Re: SPLC / Civil Rights Movement

I was alive back then and I don’t recall the Civil Rights Movement stopped like a spigot turned off after the 60s. For instance:
_____________________________

Horace Julian Bond (January 14, 1940 – August 15, 2015) was an American social activist, leader of the civil rights movement, politician, professor, and writer. While he was a student at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia,during the early 1960s, he helped establish the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). In 1971, he co-founded the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Alabama, and served as its first president for nearly a decade.

I’m sure Julian Bond considered his work after the 60s to be a continuation of his work in Civil Rights.

If aiding and abetting the expansion of Mrs. Morris Dees’ collection of expensive knick-knacks makes you a part of the ‘civil rights movement’, yeah.

Fun fact – I went to school with one of Morris Dees’ granddaughters.

Funner fact – it was a school that got its start as a segregation academy.

The SPLC wasn’t around for the Selma March, but it was part of the Civil Rights movement

Thats the Wikipedia narrative but take a look at their actual cases. They did nothing meaningful for civil rights. The closest they got was to help establish racial gerrymanders, which are only “civil rights” to Leftists.

The SPLC wasn’t around for the Selma March, but it was part of the Civil Rights movement:
__________________________

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is an American 501(c)(3) nonprofit legal advocacy organization specializing in civil rights and public interest litigation. Based in Montgomery, Alabama, it is known for its legal cases against white supremacist groups, for its classification of hate groups and other extremist organizations, and for promoting tolerance education programs? The SPLC was founded by Morris Dees, Joseph J. Levin Jr., and Julian Bond in 1971 as a civil rights law firm in Montgomery.

I knew a Green Beret turned KKK who served ten years in federal prison for trying to buy a rocket launcher to blow up SPLC headquarters.

Maybe SPLC needs to be on the government “terrorist” list and denied access to everything. Their actions are certainly anti-American. Make it so that every information entity that uses information the SPLC furnishes acknowledges the status of the organization as a terror enabler.
