Hope For The Hopeless

Keep Hope Alive!” (Rev. Jesse Jackson)

He has always ended his message to people everywhere with the familiar slogan, “Keep Hope Alive!”

For all too many African Americans, it has been a huge challenge to be able to enjoy a decent standard of living in the USA. There was a time when there were good paying jobs in the auto manufacturing plants around the country. During those years, many people of color benefited from high employment and a good standard of living.

Today, however, with the advent of high tech, many of those jobs are now performed by machine. Combine that with the tough life challenges in the large inner cities and hope is a rare commodity.

Jesse used this slogan wherever he he went.

What will you do to, “Keep Hope Alive” in your community?

If not today, when?
