	Andrew Jackson and Indian Removal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-13)
		In short, by adopting white civilization, the Cherokees had also managed to reproduce the white class system of haves and have-nots—a system that was very much in evidence in the country at that time, but a system that most whites refused to acknowledge among themselves.
		Ultimately, these whites were more threatened by the so-called "civilized" Indian than by a drunken, savage Indian, because civilized Indians could govern themselves in their own territory, beating the white man at his own game, and by doing so, prevent the further acquisition of Indian land.
		Jackson stated that in his view Native Americans residing within the boundaries of old or new states were subject to the laws of those states.

	Biography of Helen Hunt Jackson
		Jackson this was a fortuitous union since it relieved her of financial worries, thus providing the freedom with her husband's support to pursue her fascination with the American West and its Indians from her home in Colorado.
		Jackson continued her struggle to redress Indian grievances and also returned to her earlier career as a writer of poetry, essays, and novels.
		Jackson would die two years before the act was passed, after nearly a decade of intermittent debate, but her pleas for reform must have had some impact on the act's supporters, especially eastern religious humanitarians.

	Jesse Jackson Interview - November 1969
		JACKSON: Yes, but there are probably some fl men who have been so broken, whose lives have been so twisted that they would be dangerous to all other men, both fl and white, and I suppose they should not be released from confinement, though I would hope that genuine rehabilitation would replace detention.
		Whites should spend their physical energy liberating white America, because white folks need someone to help them understand fls or they're going to continue to be paralyzed by their paranoia.
		The other immigrant groups are white and could lose their identity and merge with the majority when it was necessary; with a few technical skills or a decent education, it was a simple matter for them to bypass prejudice.

	AllRefer.com - Jackson Whites (Peoples (except New World)) - Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-13)
		Jackson Whites, name applied to a group of people of mixed descent (African, European, and Native American) living in the Ramapo Mts.
		Research suggests that the origin of these people is to be found among remnants of the Algonquin, early white settlers (mainly British and Dutch), and free, landholding fls who pioneered the Hackensack River valley before migrating to the Ramapo Mts.
		The term Jackson Whites probably developed as a result of the continued joint reference to the mountain people as Jacks (an 18th-century term for freed slaves or fls in general) and Whites, i.e., it became Jackson Whites by elision.

	Presbyterian College:
		Jackson, who was greeted warmly from the start of his guest lecture, said the media played a tremendous role in shaping the Civil Rights Movement during the 1950s and 1960s -- but continues to distort the way most people perceive African Americans.
		Jackson said the media portrays African Americans in six major ways -- that they are less intelligent, less hardworking, less universal, less patriotic, less worthy, and more violent.
		Jackson also was critical of Christians he claimed are guilty of "religious marketing" and ignore the plight of the downtrodden.

	With New Image, Jackson Campaigns Outside A Race (New York Times)Ì
		Jackson, who sought the Democratic nomination for president in 1984 and 1988 and is often mentioned as a potential candidate, decided this spring not to run in 2000.
		Jackson, 57, said he decided not to run for president this time because campaign financing has distorted the political process, candidates are not as free to express controversial opinions and non-candidates have greater "moral authority."
		Analysts say that Jackson's improved image is partly due to the man himself and partly a reflection of the political climate.

	Jackson Vs. Technocracy
		Of course, if Jackson instead heeds adviser four, choosing to emphasize goals that benefit underclasses everywhere while fostering evaluation of the ethics of programs rather then merely their technical merits, yuppies may scream that the campaign is too moralistic.
		Jackson needs to coerce media respect by amassing unprecedented grass-roots support and by simultaneously reaching out to media progressives, lending to however many of them will accept it a helping hand in their uphill struggles to deliver honest news and serious analysis.
		That Bruce Springsteen, a rock-'n'-roll singer-songwriter, is the nearest thing to a white leader speaking to a mass white working-class audience in a respectful but challenging way and, in turn, expressing and advocating their sentiments publicly is a staggering truth, which we ignore at our peril.

	Jackson Whites. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		The origins of these people have for years been surrounded by myth and legend, e.g., that they are descended from a mixture of the Tuscarora, Hessian deserters, women kidnapped in England by a man named Jackson, and runaway slaves.
		Research suggests that the origin of these people is to be found among remnants of the Algonquin, early white settlers (mainly British and Dutch), and free, landholding fls who pioneered the Hackensack River valley before migrating to the Ramapo Mts.
		The term Jackson Whites probably developed as a result of the continued joint reference to the mountain people as Jacks (an 18th-century term for freed slaves or fls in general) and Whites, i.e., it became Jackson Whites by elision.

		Santa Barbara County had the dubious distinction of being among the 14 California counties, most of which are small, rural, and white, and conservative, that had ignored a mandate from California's Judicial Council Blue Ribbon Commission that all California counties use a revamped jury selection method to eliminate racial bias.
		More than a dozen prospective jurors that filled out the Jackson juror questionnaire openly said that they were racially biased and probably couldn't be impartial to a fl defendant.
		The downside is Jackson's cartoonish appearance, his eccentric, and even, bizarre lifestyle, can be just as big a turnoff to older more conservative jurors.

	The "Jackson Whites" & "To Elsie"
		The name Jackson's Whites referred to the "white slavery" which the women escaped by their retreat with the other outcasts to thei mountain.
		I am the author of the poetry analysis which made reference to the Jackson Whites in the context of trying to explain William Carlos Williams' comments about "Elsie." She was the subject of his poem "To Elsie" written in the 1930's.
		I assumed that other members of the poetry study group would not be aware of the folklore about the Jackson Whites, which I conjectured was at the core of Williams' weird sexist and racist attitude towards "Elsie".

		Jackson's ability stems from her innate talent as a draftsman of the figure.
		Jackson's vitality is shown in elegant works such as Ledge where a man is precariously holding a female suspended in space with an outstretched arm and hand.

	Whites and Jackson State
		I've worked with a couple of white guys who attended JSU in their engineering program, and I never heard them say anything ugly about the school or the campus (other than registration woes).
		It has always had some white students, mainly in the graduate program, and no small number of white professors--I know a good half dozen who are teaching or have taught there.
		I believe Jackson State should work toward full integration along the line of USM as it is right in the middle of the "J".

		Incidentally, the term "Jackson Whites" is regarded by many of the Ramapos as taboo, and to them is as offensive as the "n" word is to African-Americans.
		Second, even White youngsters are profoundly attracted to aspects of Black popular culture, so it seems likely that the music played at the local taverns may have become less country and western and more rap.

		They will tell how African-Americans will react to the verdict and what long term impact the case will have on the issues of child abuse, racial relations, the criminal justice system, and Jackson’s future in the entertainment business.
