We are told that the last time widespread protests yielded positive results, we achieved a perfectly just society, and to protest any more is going too far.
Even if we did achieve a perfectly just society, they've spent decades eroding worker's rights and exploiting us.
Also the protests are watered down. Rosa Parks just had a rough day and was too tired to stand up? No, she was educated in political issues and involved in organizing and did what she did very deliberately. She never held a speech because of patriarchal structures within the civil rights movement.
TL;DR Everyone knows MLK had a dream but no one know what it was.
