Rev. Jesse Jackson’s famous “Rainbow Coalition” speech at the 1984 DNC. A call for unity which insisted that progress comes when people of differing backgrounds see their struggles as connected. It was the first speech at a national convention to mention gays and lesbians by name. Four decades later, the message still stands: Solidarity is strategic. Rest in peace Jesse Jackson (1941 - 2026) @followers | Kyler Dineen
