Nonviolence was learned by me as not a part of my nature like it was Dr. King. It didn't take much for the nonviolence to rub off. I believe in it, and I don't misunderstand it, but personally, it was not as easy for me as it's for him.

He was in combat again, but this time his ammunition was law books and court cases. Nonviolent social chains and the civil rights movement had marched off the streets and into politics. Hooks was using white America's political system to apply pressure for black Americans. A young black man on the move, Hooks began to attract a lot of attention, including the attention of a young woman named Frances. They met at a county fair where she was selling ice cream. Francis says it was love at first sight. He says she couldn't handle her ice cream. In 1977, he was offered the role of Executive Director of the NAACP, a position he has held ever since. It was a role that thrust him center stage into the civil rights arena. Hooks was now in control of an organization of some 400,000. Demands on his time eventually led his wife to take a volunteer position in the office as Hooks' appointment secretary, just so they could see each other. He also had to give up some of his Sunday sermons as a minister in Memphis and Detroit. Nonviolent change was changing America, and at the same time, changing Benjamin Hooks.
