I watched the national news this morning. First clip they showed was Jesse Jackson pleading with black people around the world not to use words like the N word because it fosters negative images and is disrespectful. The next clip shows him using the same word he asked others not use. How hypocritical is that?
He claims to be a champion of civil rights, yet he only contributes to the problems by stirring the pot where it will do the most harm. He is just unbelievable. And the fact that so many people respect him is mind boggling. I have been following politics and people like Jesse Jackson for 25 years and I can't think of a single thing he has done to honestly improve race relations and civil rights. Can any of you? He's always there to stir things up and get everyone upset to what HE perceives as a wrong, but he is never part of the solution, only the escallation.
. I agree with everything you said, very well put.
