centered on, and run by, white males. I don't remember any kind of vocal pushback to this, but the sessions seemed to grind to a halt. Rev. Dr. Ralph Abernathy was the keynote speaker, and his speech was punctuated throughout, and sometimes drowned out by, competing billows of applause and boos, with the boos in the ascendant.

AFAIK the boos were from the caucuses, and were grounded in a notion that Dr. King's movement was not revolutionary enough.
