Didn't say that he was - maybe too outspoken at inopportune moments would be a better way to describe him - Jackson had the black vote but needed the liberal vote in the 1984 presidential elections. Had Jackson not made the Hymie and Hymietown remarks and then disremember making those remarks to a reporter (a black reporter whom Jackson thought would keep the bro code) before apologizing and admitting the truth, his Rainbow Coalition would have come to fruition. https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/1984/04/08/a-reporters-story/807486fd-b978-484d-8110-e5a544d072aa/?utm_term=.a3e64ca3d0da
Would it have made a difference? Probably not as Reagan won easily over Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro. And there was Jackson's speech at Yeshiva University and Jackson's "cut his nuts off" reaction picked up by a live microphone to the Father's Day speech in which Obama was critical of black men not supporting their children.
What I am saying is the comments towards Jews are coming from someone. How was White - a person who displays abject ignorance at every turn, doesn't comprehend Kristallnacht, misunderstands stormtroopers humiliating the German woman being marched through - able to name the Rothschilds? There is no parthenogenesis in hatred, it's a learned behavior. And it is people like Jesse Jackson and Louis Farrakhan shaping these attitudes. ""I sincerely think he [White] was just repeating conspiracy theories he had heard somewhere," said Rabbi Batya Glazer, who had met with White on the issue."
White donated $500 to the Nation of Islam's Saviours' Day where Farrakhan said, "Powerful Jews are my enemy," from funds to directly benefit D.C. Ward 8 residents. “I am not resigning, I’m not backing down, I’m not discouraged, I’m not depressed, so run all the media stories you want because my people are going to support me. I know some of my colleagues call for me to be censured. We going to have problems, we going to have major problems, because people are going to start coming down to the Wilson Building standing up. No longer are we going to be kowtowed into being silent about the things that matter.”
That sounds like Jesse Jackson rhetoric. Is White being groomed since Jesse Jackson Jr is out of the political picture?
