Jesse Jackson Says Black College Athletes Are The New Slaves

   DailyWire.com

On a recent trip to Seattle for Microsoft’s annual shareholders meeting, Reverend Jesse Jackson, for the second year in a row, was speaking about the terrible lack of diversity at the company. Because he’s a giver, he took a little time away from shaming those racist whities elsewhere, appearing on public radio to shame the racist whities running all universities. Jackson made sure to call out the biggest racist whitey of all, George Washington.

In an interview with KUOW, Jackson implied black college athletes were slaves, asserting, “We’re being cherry picked to generate resources and generate imagery. But we are as capable if given the same scholarship support. We’ve gone from picking cotton balls to picking footballs.

When the subject of America’s first president came up, Jackson was adamant that Washington’s only attribute worthy of remembrance was that he owned slaves.

KUOW reports,

“A large statue of George Washington, the first U.S. president, looms large over the University of Washington’s main campus.

Should the statue’s inscription read “slave owner”? Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. believes so.

“The writing does not mention slave master; it does not mention support for a crime against humanity,” Jackson told KUOW’s Bill Radke on Tuesday. Jackson was in Seattle to attend Microsoft’s annual meeting.

“That’s a big piece of it,” he said. “At least educate people as to who this guy was.”

The NAACP will have to agree with Jackson’s logic and design a statue in his honor which will inevitably “loom large” over Microsoft’s headquarters to reflect fully the man that he is.

“We’ve gone from picking cotton ball to picking footballs.”

The plaque on the statue must now include references to The Honorable Right Reverend’s profiteering as a race-baiting, Jew hating, adulterer, who makes his real money through corporate shakedowns. The plaque’s font will have to be small to include Judicial Watch’s findings:

Jackson is “an extortionist who uses his influence as a civil rights leader to essentially blackmail wealthy corporations with absurd discrimination threats.”

Jackson lobbied the Federal Communications Commission to block companies seeking government approval to merge until they donate money to Rainbow Push.

Jackson publicly chastised Toyota for running an ad Jackson deemed “racist.” After Toyota pulled the ad, Jackson threatened a boycott the automaker to force it to launch a $7.8 million “diversity program.”

Jackson installed one of his friends, J.L. Armstrong, in a management position at Toyota to determine which organizations would receive $700 million in contracts awarded by Toyota.

Minority businesses pay Jackson’s “Trade Bureau” a fee to help extort lucrative contracts from corporations. During the trial, Jackson compared the Trade Bureau to “Noah’s Ark,” claiming minority businesses and organizations had to be inside the “ark” to survive.
