Richie Jean Jackson

Richie Jean Jackson, also known as Jean Jackson and Richie Jean Sherrod Jackson (August 30, 1932– November 10, 2013), was an American author, teacher, and civil rights activist.

Early life and education

Jackson was born in Mobile, Alabama as the only child of John W. and Juanita Richardson Sherrod. She was a childhood friend of Coretta Scott King. She attended and graduated from Cardoza High School in Washington, D.C. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in secondary education at Alabama State College, and a Masters of Education at the University of Montevallo. She was married to Dr. Sullivan Jackson. They had one child, a girl named Jawana Virginia Jackson.

Civil rights activist

In February 1964, Martin Luther King Jr., Southern Christian Leadership Conference staff, and members of Congress met for strategy sessions to plan the Selma to Montgomery marches in Jackson's Selma, Alabama home. After the first attempted march on March 7, 1965 (known as Bloody Sunday), Assistant U. S. Attorney General John Doar and Florida Governor LeRoy Collins, the latter of whom was there representing President Lyndon Johnson, met with King and others at Jackson's house. This led to a second attempt at a voting rights march from Selma to Montgomery, and finally a third and successful attempt. It was also in Jackson's home that Martin Luther King Jr. watched Lyndon Johnson give his Voting Rights Act Address on March 15, 1965.

Jackson, Mississippi

Jackson is the capital of and the largest city in the U.S. state of Mississippi. It is located primarily in Hinds County, serving as one of two county seats there; segments of the city overlap Madison County and Rankin County. Jackson is on the Pearl River, which drains into the Gulf of Mexico, and it is part of the Jackson Prairie region of the state. The city is named after General Andrew Jackson, who was honored for his role in the Battle of New Orleans during the War of 1812 and later served as U.S. President.

The current slogan for the city is "Jackson, Mississippi: City with Soul." It has had numerous musicians prominent in blues, gospel and jazz, and was known for decades for its illegal nightclubs on the Gold Coast; one site has been designated for the Mississippi Blues Trail.

The city is the anchor for the metro area. While its population declined from 184,256 at the 2000 census to 173,514 at the 2010 census, the metropolitan region grew. The 2010 census ascribed a population of 539,057 to the five-county Jackson metropolitan area.
