It's not that hard to see why that mindset took hold. The rise of hip-hop culture in the 90, combined with popular black personalities such as Bill Cosby, Will Smith, & Michael Jordan make the fountains, marches, & lynchings feel jarring.

As an older millennial, I'm literally part of the first generation of black Americans born with full rights protected by the Federal government on paper. You could make a case for Gen X, but they started in 1965 and there was still legislation to be passed. It may be cognitive dissonance or people really just don't know the history.
