Biden calls retiring Jesse Jackson, with long history of Jew-hatred, ‚man of God and of the people‘ – The Baptist minister and activist has used slurs to refer to Jews, said “I’m sick and tired of hearing constantly about the Holocaust” and accused Israel of crimes on par with those of the Nazis. | JNS.org
(July 16, 2023 / JNS) History will remember Jesse Jackson as “a man of God and of the people,” who is “determined, strategic and unafraid of the work to redeem the soul of our nation,” U.S. President Biden said on July 16.
In the White House announcement, which marked the 81-year-old Baptist minister and activist’s retirement, Biden invoked a quote from Jewish scripture—that man is created in the divine image. He called Jackson an “extraordinary” leader, who “helped lead our nation forward through tumult and triumph,” adding, “We will continue to cherish the counsel and wisdom that we draw from him.”
