Talk:Harry R. Jackson Jr.

Advocate - High Impact Leadership Coalition
Jackson is also the chairman of the High Impact Leadership Coalition (HILC) which exits to empower religious and community leaders to impact their world and their communities.

In a recent interview in Christianity Today Magazine, Jackson outlined some of his political views. He says he feels his moral values are closer to that of the Republican Party than that of the Democratic Party, particularly regarding abortion and same-sex marriage. However, he emphasizes that he felt the Republican Party was lacking in areas such as health care and justice reform. In the interview, he established that he feels that both ends of the political spectrum, social justice and individual responsibility, must be balanced. These ideas are shared lucidly in one of his most recent books Personal Faith Public Policy. The book addresses seven urgent issues that all people of faith must come together to solve. These issues include: Preserve and Protect Life, Reform Immigration Policy, Alleviate Domestic Poverty and Ensure Justice, Cultivate Racial Harmony and Diversity, Protect Religious Freedom, Defend Marriage and Family, and Protect the Environment.

Jackson has appeared as a guest on the Tavis Smiley Show, Tony Brown’s Journal, The O’Reilly Factor, Britt Hume’s Special Report, National Public Radio, CBS Evening News, BET Evening News, 700 Club, and CBN News. He has been featured in articles in the News York Times, Los Angeles Times, The Baltimore Sun, The Washington Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer and The Chicago Defender.

Jackson appeared before a public rally on October 26, 2009 in Washington, D.C. to speak against the Human Rights Act of the District of Columbia (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGWQa_T6W_0). Mr. Jackson's residency in D.C. has been questioned because he has been trying to incite a referendum in the District to enact a definition of marriage and family that runs counter to the DC Human Rights Act (see Washington Blade article "Where does Harry Jackson Live", June 12, 2009). Mr. Jackson's legal attempts so far have failed to pass legal scrutiny by the DC Board of Ethics and Elections (see Washington Blade article, ".D.C. officials block marriage referendum Ballot measure said to violate human rights law, Oct 28, 2009". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mykelb (talk • contribs) 16:50, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

This article is not saying that he died in his sleep. MikaelaArsenault (talk) 23:21, 9 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Is it normal for the family of a prominent public figure to not name a cause of death (as was also the case for Robert Trump a few months ago)? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 20:02, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
