The following is an excerpt from the video.
“Reverend
Jesse Jackson announced today that he has been diagnosed with
Parkinson’s. I spent time with him and his family in New York as he made
his announcement,
and as I watched him I was reminded of the greatness of this man.
"How
he continued Martin Luther King, Jr’s movement for justice making it
national; how he perfected economic boycotts and corporate
responsibility in the 21st century; how he
changed American politics with his presidential runs; to how he
influenced American foreign policy, Reverend Jackson has changed the
nation and served in ways in which he never got credit. We pray for him,
just as he fought for us.”
