REVERNED JESSE JACKSON DIES

REVEREND JESSE JACKSON DIES

By: Derek Varsalona



Civil Rights Activist Rev. Jesse Jackson died yesterday at the age of 84.  A Baptist minister and civil rights icon will leave a huge emptiness in many hearts today.


Reverend Jesse Jackson was the founder of the Rainbow Push Coalition.  Some people would describe the man as a racist, but I do not think that he was a racist.  Reverend Jackson was a Civil Rights icon of the modern era.  But no means was he greater than Martin Luther King.


Jesse Jackson's legacy will live on.  As always, comments accepted.
