Rev. Jesse Jackson, civil rights activist and international humanitarian, will be in Columbus on Wednesday, February 23 to Rally for All Workers, Our Schools, and Our Community.

Rev. Jackson, founder and president of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, is one of America’s foremost civil rights, religious and political figures. A longtime figure in the social justice movement, he was with Dr. Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. during his final march which was for sanitation workers in Memphis.

On Wednesday he will be in Columbus to fight for Ohio’s middle class and the sanitation workers, teachers, firefighters and other public workers that provide our communities vital services but are currently under attack by Ohio SB 5.
