My birthday was great on Sunday, but after church and a great lunch, I headed straight to the airport to make it to Memphis, as yesterday was the 54th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. yesterday was the most sobering day of this journey so far, to stand in the exact spot #DrKing was laid out as friends and medical attention rushed to his side. To stand with my mentor, his mentee, Rev. Jackson, and see his very palpable emotion….just a very sobering day. We will not forget! Ever!

I am now leaving #Memphis, to #NewYork to join @real_sharpton once again at his international conference. I am very thankful for the space God allows me to occupy.

Can I tell you why you didn’t drown in your storm? Look at Acts 27. You’ll find that (1) You’ve Got an Assignment to Fulfill. (2) You Still BELIEVE GOD and (3) God Gave You Something to Hold On To! Let me close here now.

Today we celebrate the 85th Birthday of our legend, our leader and our light—Reverend Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. His first birthday in Heaven. 8 months later I’m still grappling with this loss, still in denial, and still don’t want to believe it. But Rev left nothing on this earth undone, so we celebrate the life, love and legacy of you today!! MAN WE MISS YOU!!! You’ll be happy to know that Yusef and the team are doing an exceptional job keeping the PUSH going, and we’re taking care of Mrs. J for you. People from around the world visit PUSH now in busloads wanting to see your work. We will never let you down. We will always protect your memory. We will always CALL OUT YOUR NAME!! I wish I could talk to you these days and get your opinion on current events. I need your direction and guidance on decisions, I need your wisdom. Your voice rings so loudly in my head literally everyday. Mrs. Jackson won’t let anyone forget what you said about me, that you would make me a leader—I hope I’m making you proud Rev! Happy Birthday I know the parties in Heaven will never compare to the Beverly Hilton! I love you Reverend Jesse Jackson Sr.!!

Paul wrote a letter to the church and told them how to use their spiritual gifts. They should edify Christ—not yourself. Taken from 1 Corinthians 14.

There was a special energy in the room yesterday at our Saturday Morning Forum.

We laughed, we learned, we were challenged, and we walked away with plenty to think about. Most of all, it was a joy to hear so many powerful voices share what is on their hearts and remind us why this work continues to matter.

We heard from President, Yusef D. Jackson, Congressman Jonathan L. Jackson, our National Youth Director Cameron Barnes, Chicago Votes Policy Fellow Ellison Radek, and our young Morehouse scholar Jarrell David, who we are extremely proud to see growing, learning and finding his own voice as a young leader.

One of the beautiful things about Saturday Morning Forum is that you never quite know what word, story or moment is going to stay with you after you leave. Yesterday gave us plenty of those moments.

Thank you to everyone who spoke, everyone who came through our doors, and everyone who continues to make Saturday mornings at PUSH feel like family.

We’ll see you at the next one!
