Jackson, Jesse, 1941-
Biography:
"In 1966, Jesse Jackson began to lead Operation Breadbasket, a Southern Christian Leadership Conference's (SCLC) program in Chicago. Often seen as Martin Luther King's protégé, Jackson quickly earned a place among King's inner circle. Although King found Jackson's ambition troubling at times, SCLC executive vice president Andrew Young, called Jackson, "a natural-born leader" (Frontline, "Interview with Andrew Young")."--"Jackson, Jesse Louis (1941- )" King Encyclopedia.
