The photo is of Jesse Jackson preaching at New Road Baptist Church on Tuesday evening, after having earlier spoken with ministerial, graduate and undergraduate students at Regent's. On Wednesday he returned to Regent's for more meetings with students and a lecture called 'Freedom and Education'. It was a great couple of days. I thought he preached really well (loud and rhetorical) and it was a great service. The question and answer sessions with students showed his political skills as he keep re-iterating his message for more a level playing field for black and other ethnic groups, which means more access to universities like Oxford and Cambridge. He showed a good grasp of the Iraq situation, suggesting that America has lost its moral authority (in my view they lost that a long time ago, if they ever really had any).
