Death of Jesse Jackson: End of the Old Guard and the Hustle That Never Ends | Family Meeting 2/18/26
Episode Description
Monique and Kevin discuss Rev. Jesse Jackson's recent death, marking the end of an era in Black civil rights activism.They reflect on their childhood reverence for Jackson as a civil rights icon alongside MLK, while also acknowledging how his legacy evolved into a "race hustler" who perpetuated grievance narratives and racial division rather than calling people to gospel repentance. They react to a clip from filmmaker and documentarian, Chad O. Jackson. Later, they react to a young social media personality who argues that multiculturalism/diversity weakens societies. It's a candid, "spicy" mix of nostalgia, sharp critique, humor, and a call to prioritize discipleship and true gospel hope.
