Rev. Jesse Jackson Pushes For Federal Anti-Lynching LawThe Time Is Now! BY JEFFREY L. BONEY NNPA Newswire Political Analyst If history has proven one thing, it’s that when Reverend Jesse L. Jackson speaks, the nation tends to always listen. Rev. Jackson continues to use his voice to speak on an atrocity that has plagued Black peo- ple for decades—the horrific act of lynch- ing. While in town to receive the 2018 Lifetime Legacy Award from the National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA) at their NNPA Awards National Legacy Awards Black Tie Gala and Annual Convention in Norfolk, Virginia, Rev. Jackson spoke to NNPA publishers about the need to adopt legislation to address the despicable act of lynching. “Lynching should be a federal crime,” Rev. Jackson told the group of publishers at the NNPA Annual Convention. “Blacks are still being lynched today. Not just with a rope. Unarmed Blacks are being killed on a regu- lar basis and it must be addressed. More people were killed after slavery than before slavery. Prior to the ending of slavery we were considered assets, but after slavery we were considered a threat, because we could vote. We need this legislation now.” Rev. Jackson believes that addressing the issue of lynching in this country is long over- due, and he has been aggressively pushing for members of Congress to step up to the Reverend Jesse Jackson, Rainbow/PUSH Coalition plate and officially make lynching a federal crime. Rev. Jackson told NNPA publishers The three African American senators— commitment to abolishing this shameful statement supporting the need for the bill. and I am glad to be able to join in efforts that he has spoken with the Congressional Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Kamala Harris (D- practice.” “From 1882 to 1968 there have been 200 that will underscore the severity of this Black Caucus (CBC), Minority Leader Nancy Calif.) and Tim Scott (R-S.C.)—drafted the Although lynching has been a terrible attempts that have failed to get Congress crime,” Sen.
