Jesse Jackson Steps Down

https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/14/us/je...ion/index.html

Civil rights leader the Rev. Jesse Jackson announced plans to step down as president of the Chicago-based Rainbow PUSH Coalition, the international human and civil rights organization he founded.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson called Jackson ?an architect of the soul of Chicago? in a statement Friday.


Yeah...

What has he actually done to further civil rights?

I am no historian but it seems to me he has often been in the middle of, or in front of, racial strife.

Rather than working to alleviate it, it often seems he has promoted it.

He certainly has profited from it.

I am surprised it took this long. He definitely has not been, to use Booker T. Washington's expression, "prominent before the public" for quite awhile. Sharpton, Crump, James have been the faces of race-baiting agitators.

So, he is responsible 40+ inner city shootings a weekend?
Unparalleled poverty?
Rampant drug use?
Corruption at every level?

Sounds like a soul snatcher.

The modus operandi for these race grifters it to approach a large corp, accuse them or racism by not having enough blacks hired or blacks in high administration and then shake them down for millions to avoid bad press.

Mayor Johnson's comments were spot on.
