Last Friday (March 6), the memorial service for the late Reverend Jesse Jackson was robust, befitting his long life as a global fighter for civil rights. But remarks by his son, Jesse Jackson Jr., sparked some controversy as they contained a swipe at three former Democratic presidents who attended – Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Bill Clinton.
“I listened for several hours to three United States presidents who do not know Jesse Jackson,” he began while speaking at the final memorial service held on Saturday (March 7) at the headquarters for the Rainbow PUSH Coalition in Chicago, Illinois.
