Honoring the Life & Legacy of Reverend Jesse L. Jackson Sr.
“May we honor him by daring to keep hope alive? May we honor him by daring to speak truth to power? May we honor him by daring to call out corruption, moral malfeasance, political narcissism, autocratic action, authoritarian behavior and cult-like oligarch spirits masquerading as civic duty?…... “We offer these prayers of farewell this day so that all those who gather in this space, who seek to keep hope alive and know you are somebody may say, ‘Amen.’”
