Jesse Jackson is a man of many words, but it looks like he was left almost speechless in recent events. A video surfaced of a few protestors approach Jesse Jackson while he was completely minding his own.
The confrontation began smoothly with a few questions from the alleged protestors about Jackson’s support in Ferguson that day. Jackson pleasantly replied that he was marching all day. All of sudden, the conversation to a turn for the worst!
The protestor started to attack him for not actually seeing him marching and then proceeds to ask him if he’ll help pay the bail for the Ramsey Orta.
Sidebar: Ramsey Orta is under arrest for the videotaping and posting of Eric Garner – of Staten Island – being choked by police.
Jackson wasn’t too quick to respond when protestors continued to interrogate him with, “Are you marching today with us, or you just going to sit in the car?” It started to get a bit more heated when the protestor questioned Jesse Jackson about selling out his fellow African Americans.
And it didn’t stop there, the protestor then went on to say, “We’re activists out here, brother. This is real! We don’t want you here! You’re not a leader! We don’t want you here, brother! Matter of fact, you not even a brother, keep it moving!”
While most of us would have fought back and demanded the protestors to leave, Jackson listened to the protestors and kept the peace.
