May 15, 2026For over seven million people in the US, #Alzheimer’s is a slow erasure of memory, identity and connection. As #pharmaceutical giants charge staggering prices for treatments that offer limited results with dangerous side effects, a potential breakthrough has emerged from Cuba, a country subjected to more than six decades of #US economic warfare.

#Video - Jesse Jackson Went to Cuba in 1984. His Son Returned With the Same Message
https://peertube.world/w/pJVh6DxfGgENfLa31DXFv4
Duration - 2:36[from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
At a time when the US government’s economic war on #Cuba is intensifying, #US lawmakers Rep. Pramila Jayapal and Rep. Jonathan Jackson traveled to Havana in early April.
At the Martin Luther King Center, Jackson paid tribute to his father, #JesseJackson, recalling his historic 1984 visit to the island, when he met with Fidel Castro and helped usher in a rare moment of dialogue between Cuba and the #AfricanAmerican community.
Jackson spoke of a generation of people in the US shaped by the country’s continuous wars, and called for a different path forward — one rooted in dialogue, mutual respect, and human connection.
“It’s my prayer that the historical and political differences that divide us would not be used to deny our children the kind of future they deserve,” he said.

#jesseJackson #heatherCoxRichardson The past that his legacy will honor is rooted in March 7, 1965, when marchers set out across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, headed for the state capital at Montgomery.
The trigger for their march was the shooting death of an unarmed 26-year-old, Jimmy Lee Jackson, but their journey had begun a full three years before, in 1963, when Black organizers in the Dallas County Voters League launched a drive to get Black voters in Selma registered. They had chosen Selma because while there were more Black people than white people among the 29,500 people who lived in Selma, the city’s voting rolls were 99% white.🧵
