OT: Black leaders who you admire.

This is a Black History Month topic! Which black leader or black leaders do you admire?

Martin Luther King, Jr. implied that he wanted Americans -- really, all people -- to judge each other based on their character and not their skin color. He's one of my black heroes.

Who're yours and why?
