The Civil Rights Movement Ain’t What It Used To Be
Civil rights legend Martin Luther King Jr., whose movement Jesse Jackson worked with in the 1960’s, speaking during his famous “I have a dream” speech:
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
Jesse Jackson, currently the nation’s most recognizable civil rights leader, speaking yesterday:
The Rev. Jesse Jackson criticized Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., for “acting like he’s white” when it comes to the case of six young blacks who were charged with crimes in Jena, La., according to The (Charleston, S.C.) State.
Sounds like someone needs to judge Jackson by the content of his character.
