Rev. Al Sharpton Delivers Powerful Remarks at Rev. Jesse L. Jackson Celebration of Life
Today at the House of Hope in Chicago, Rev. Al Sharpton delivered powerful remarks during the public celebration of the life and legacy of his beloved mentor, Rev. Jesse L. Jackson. Standing before thousands gathered to honor a giant of the civil rights movement, Rev. Sharpton reminded the audience that the lessons of Rev. Jackson’s life still guide the struggle today. Rev. Jackson taught generations that hope must be active, that faith must move us forward, and that the fight for justice requires courage, unity, and perseverance. He reminded us that the promise of the rainbow is not simply a dream. It is a commitment to continue the work and to protect the progress that so many sacrificed to achieve. Rev. Jesse L. Jackson dedicated his life to justice, equality, and opportunity. His voice called a nation to conscience and his legacy will continue to guide those who believe in fairness, dignity, and the power of organized people. Thank you Rev. Jackson. Love and comfort to the Jackson family. Keep hope alive. Join Rev. Al Sharpton and the National Action Network at the National Action Network Convention, April 8 through April 11 in New York City.
