Great post. Thanks.
I think the leaders of the anti-Jackson protest are correct when they say...
"...Reverend Jackson has taken advantage of his title as so-called leader of the African-American community to take advantage of companies in order to support his family...He has lost touch with the common person."...
"we have done some very serious self-examination, and when we look at this man and what he has done, the community has benefited very little."
Jesse's son Yusef Jackson studied law at U.Va. Law, whose admissions policies Linda Chavez has recently exposed through her impressive thinktank:

"A detailed, 50-page study released by the Center for Equal Opportunity concludes that racial discrimination is widespread in Virginia law school admissions. The report focuses on the three Virginia public law schools -- the University of Virginia, William & Mary, and George Mason University -- and reveals odds favoring black applicants as high as 731 to 1. To put it in other terms: A student with an LSAT score of 160 and an undergraduate GPA of 3.25 had a 95 percent chance of admission into U.Va. if he or she was black, but only a 3 percent chance of admission if white, Hispanic or Asian."
