I heard the MLK riots were much more organized than the current black community riots. Is this true, and, if so, what factors caused this difference?

I heard the MLK riots were less random violence and more solidairity? Is this false, and if not, why?

Do you mean the riots after MLK was killed or his protests?

Well you seem to think these riots are completely unorganized, which isn't true, it's just how the media as portrayed it. When Baltimore schools were closed many organizations set up locations for children to have hot lunches. There were also sack lunches being passed around to protesters. They also coordinated what locations and when to meet to protest. It's a crowd sourced organization.
