Michael Eric Dyson Instagram – My take in the @chicagosuntimes on the resignation of @fhunscripted as head of the once venerable and now struggling @rpcoalition founded by the legendary @revjjackson.
“The hard truth is many around Jackson don’t want him to relinquish power, even to a figure like Haynes, who to this day adores Jackson and has not a bad word to say about him. The succession of men who have paraded through PUSH as would-be successors to Jackson testifies to the inability to surrender authority for the good of the group.
Without a sense of irony, Jackson’s defenders lay out the qualifications to fill Jackson’s shoes. They miss the most salient one: for Jackson to step aside in grace and class to allow a successor to craft a plan of revival for the group while showing respect to the founder, and for the cavalcade of Jackson sycophants to stop showering down chaos so the rainbow can once again shine.” | Posted on 23/Apr/2024 03:32:52
