Jackson

Famous quotes containing the word jackson:

    Racism as a form of skin worship, and as a sickness and a pathological anxiety for America, is so great, until the poor whites—rather than fighting for jobs or education—fight to remain pink and fight to remain white. And therefore they cannot see an alliance with people that they feel to be inherently inferior.
    —Jesse Jackson (b. 1941)

    Disunion by force is treason.
    —Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    God will take care of you for me. I am my God’s. I belong to him, I go a short time before you, and I want to meet all in heaven, both white and black.
    —Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
