Reader’s Editorial: Recollections of the life and legacy of a Visionary, The Reverend Jesse Jackson.

As the former and retired Bookshelf Editor of the East County Magazine in San Diego, as well as a former member of Reverend Jesse Jackson’s Operation P.U.S.H. in Chicago, I am honored to share memories of this visionary, and to include some close and poignant meetings and involvement with this man.

Chicago, was and still is a city of political activism, that the Reverend Jesse Jackson was involved in, and I hope to share my involvement in that political and civil rights activism. Jesse Jackson came along at a time when the City of Chicago, as well as the world itself needed him. There is possibly no other person in life that has an aura or makeup as this man!
