The famous Rev. Jesse Jackson

Seeing a flyer on the main entrance of lafallotte saying that Rev. Jesse Jackson was going to speak at Ball State I thought it would be a great opportunity to see an individual who has been so influential to our country. The auditorium was packed as the Reverend took the stage to talk about political and social topics. I forgot exactly what he said when he got the crowd to repeat in unison what he had said but it was really neat that crowd was so into it. Another thing i liked about him was even though he was running late he still took time for a Q&A session after he had finished speaking. Overall he met all my expectations of what he was going to do at ball state which was to inform us on his top of 'How are we living the legacy', and even shared events that happened between martin luther king jr and him self. It was very influential to have heard him speak and something i will never forget.
