Excellent material that needs to be known.

It shows - clearly - that the 'Reverend' Jesse Jackson is a total fraud and an crass opportunist who climbed to national fame on the dead body of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, even stooping to the depths of using the slain leader's blood as a prop to aggrandize himself. Beyond disgusting.

This is the man who 'speaks' for Black America?

I don't believe Jackson had anything to do with King's murder but it's obvious that Jesse was a determined opportunist all along and King had realized it. While King's friends and associates were shocked and stunned immediately after the killing of Dr. King, Jesse recovered instantly and seized the opportunity he must have felt he was being handed on a platter.

America should know the real 'Jesse Jackson Story' but I'll bet even Bill O'Reilly won't go there. Too offensive and - like Teddy Kennedy's fatality-producing auto accident in '69 - too far in the past and irrelevant to most Americans to care about. The NAACP would howl 'racism' (they would call the sun 'racist' if it didn't shine on them one cloudy day) and Jesse would probably cry foul as most of the witnesses to the King murder and Jesse's physical position at the time (not kneeling over King) are now dead. Too bad.

The Left-wing cover-up has worked... Blacks today are mostly unaware.

When I've mentioned Jesse's "behavior" to black acquaintances and cited Young and Abernathy, they're stunned and repulsed.
