โJesse Jackson was a force for good not only in this country but all across the globe,โ said NCRC President and CEO Jesse Van Tol. โFrom marching with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to running for president twice in the 1980s to championing economic and racial justice until his passing, we would not have made the strides in equality that we have without him. John Taylor and I admired him deeply and were honored to learn from him and inspired by his moral leadership. NCRC is better off for having him as a close ally, and our staff, members and supporters will deeply miss him.โ
