We sat down with Rev. Jesse Jackson, just a day before the election. Rev. Jackson has been on the fight for civil rights his entire adult life. He marched side by side, with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. When Dr. King was killed, Rev. Jackson was standing right beside him.
After King’s death, Rev. Jackson did not stop, he kept going. He has continued to fight and be a voice for many people across the country. He continues to hold the government accountable.
We sat down with him to talk South Carolina politics because he is from Greenville, South Carolina. He was born and raised in South Carolina. Jackson spoke on the US Senate race, he spoke about why it was so important for you young people to get out and vote for Jamie Harrison. He spoke about what “new” south looks like and how we get there.
