We’ve lost a giant. Reverend Jesse Jackson was fearless, faithful, and relentless in his pursuit of justice. He didn’t wait for permission to demand equality — he organized, he mobilized, and he built real political power for Black communities and for folks this country tried to

Here’s the close of Jesse’s 1988 DNC speech “keep hope alive.” The challenge for politicians on the left remains unsparing critique that doesn’t descend into cynicism. There’s a reason that churched, black political figures navigate this more seamlessly than others

Jesse Jackson was a champion for civil rights, economic justice, and world peace. I have always remembered his moving call for moral clarity at the 1988 DNC.

If you can’t take up for children who were sex trafficked, who can you take up for? The answer: no one. You’ll defend no one if your political capital is at stake, and you need to be purged from our party.

What I said in November still holds true, “until men are being walked to the jail, this is still a cover-up.” Transparency is an essential part of unraveling this global sex trafficking scheme, but it’s not the Department of Transparency, it’s the Department of Justice.

Many have heard of the Navajo Code Talkers but less know there were other tribes who utilized Native American languages as US soldiers. The first was the Choctaw Code Talkers who pioneered code talking during WW1, straight from the trenches facing machine guns and gas—heroes!
