Following the death of civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson on Tuesday at 84 years old, NPR host Leila Fadel conducted an interview with Dr. Eddie Glaude, a prominent author and academic, to examine Jackson’s significant contributions and lasting influence on American society.
The conversation between Fadel and Dr. Glaude focused on exploring the profound impact Jackson had throughout his decades-long career as a civil rights activist and his continuing relevance in today’s social justice movements.
