Join CNN’s Abby Phillip for a fresh look at the history of Black political power, Jesse Jackson’s transformative presidential campaigns of the 1980s, and Phillip’s new book, A Dream Deferred: Jesse Jackson and the Fight for Black Political Power.
Jesse Jackson’s presidential runs in 1984 and 1988 created the blueprint for the modern Democratic coalition — one that has been used by all major Democrats seeking national office, from Obama to Biden to Harris. And even when this coalition doesn’t hold, it stands as a testament to the promise of an America that can and should work for everyone, across the lines of race, religion, age, and class. In A Dream Deferred, the host of News Night with Abby Phillip takes a deep dive into what made these campaigns work, how Democrats can continue to learn from them, and what makes Jackson an enduringly transformative political figure.
Hear Phillip, “one of the most compelling and brilliant journalists of her generation” (Jake Tapper), gives Jesse Jackson the consideration he deserves in a conversation that sheds new light on an overlooked American icon.
