Since this thread periodically brings up issues from
people's pasts, I thought I would toss this out.

Jesse Jackson's 'Hymietown' Remark – 1984

A storm of protest erupted, and Jackson at first denied the
remarks, then accused Jews of conspiring to defeat him. The
Nation of Islam's radical leader Louis Farrakhan, an
aggressive anti-Semite and old Jackson ally, made a
difficult situation worse by threatening Coleman in a radio
broadcast and issuing a public warning to Jews, made in
Jackson's presence: "If you harm this brother [Jackson], it
will be the last one you harm."

Finally, Jackson doused the fires in late February with an
emotional speech admitting guilt and seeking atonement
before national Jewish leaders in a Manchester, New
Hampshire synagogue.
