Protest protest held by racist

by Uncle Tom Friday, Jan. 18, 2002 at 5:41 PM

Rally to be held by race terrorist to protest Jesse Jackson

Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, Founder of BOND, the Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny ("Rebuilding the Family By Rebuilding the Man"), is sponsoring the "Third Annual National Day of Repudiation of Jesse Jackson." This event is held annually on the day Dr. Martin Luther King's birthday is celebrated (the Third Annual Event will take place Monday, January 21, 2002, from 12 noon till 2 PM PST, and will be held every year until Jesse Jackson "repents of his wrongs.") Location: In front of Jackson's Rainbow/PUSH offices at 5750 Wilshire BLVD., Los Angeles, CA

"Jesse Jackson is desperate and out of control," said Rev. Peterson. "Jackson has recently attempted to undermine the Bush Administration and the 'War on Terrorism' by trying to negotiate with the Taliban. Jackson is currently attempting to 'shakedown' corporations like Toyota Motors to enrich himself and his cronies. He doesn't care about poor blacks, or any other Americans. He has pit black against white, poor against rich, and his brand of exploitation has set race relations back fifty years-- we're saying no more! We are calling on all Americans of goodwill to stand against racist demagogues of every color."

Here's what the good reverand won't tell you...

(From OC Weekly, December 14, 2001, regarding Anaheim rally held by American Patrol)

...Mostly, I just had to listen to a bunch of crackers saying awful, awful things about the "savagery" of illegal aliens. But then the black folks wanted in on the action, too! The Reverend Jesse Peterson hollered about the warfare between blacks and Hispanics, saying Latinos were trying to drive blacks out of their own country. And the invaluable Gustavo reports that before his speech, Peterson was wandering around, asking women "about their racial background and if they would ever date a Mexican. When he found out that one of the protesters was half-white and half-Mexican, Peterson blamed the girl’s Mexican mother for ‘brainwashing’ her into hating the United States and told her that she’d still love America if her father had not left the family." Yow!..."

The article doesn't mention that Peterson was carrying a gun, constantly provoked fights at the rally, and called an Asian a "Jap".

FIGHT THIS RACIST TERRORIST! Go to the protest and tell Peterson how you feel about his tactics.
