REV.

JESSE L. JACKSON, SR. 1941 – 2026 Faith. Courage. Service. Rest in Power. Today, we honor the life and legacy of Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr., who passed away on February 17, 2026, at the age of 84. From the front lines of the civil rights movement to decades of organizing for dignity, opportunity, and justice, Rev. Jackson’s voice carried hope into rooms where it was needed most. His leadership reminded the world that service is not a moment — it’s a lifetime. At the 100 Black Men of Atlanta, we reflect with gratitude for a life poured into people, progress, and purpose. May we continue the work with the same faith, courage, and commitment. Rest in Power, Reverend Jackson. #JesseJackson #KeepHopeAlive #CivilRightsLegacy #LegacyOfService #100BlackMenATL #RestInPower
