Jessie Jackson: Duck Dynasty comments "white privilege"

Racial controversy? Jessie Jackson is on the scene... [i]The Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. has stepped into the “Duck Dynasty” uproar, using the case of civil rights hero Rosa Parks to make his case against show star Phil Robertson. “At least the bus driver, who ordered Rosa Parks to surrender her seat to a white person, was following state law,” Jackson said in a statement, according to the Chicago Tribune. “Robertson’s statements were uttered freely and openly without cover of the law, within a context of what he seemed to believe was ‘white privilege.’” Jackson and his civil rights group Rainbow PUSH Coalition have demanded a meeting with the A&E network, which broadcasts the hugely popular “Duck Dynasty,” and restaurant Cracker Barrel, which carries “Duck Dynasty” merchandise. Robertson has been suspended from the reality show and Cracker Barrel briefly pulled “Duck Dynasty” merchandise from its shelves after the star’s controversial comments about gays and African-Americans in an interview with GQ magazine. In the interview, Robertson said that in his Louisiana youth he picked cotton with African-Americans and never saw “the mistreatment of any black person,” adding that they were “singing and happy” and didn’t complain about white people.[/i]
