He stood with the family of George Floyd at a memorial for the Black man murdered in 2020 by a white police officer, whose death forced a national reckoning with police brutality and racism. Jackson also participated in COVID-19 vaccination drives to battle hesitancy in Black communities. The soon-to-be new president, Rev. Haynes, is a pastor, leader and social activist, engaged in preaching and fighting against racial injustice.
Haynes has served as a visionary and innovative senior pastor of Friendship-West Baptist Church in Dallas for the past 40 years. He considers himself a longtime student of Jackson and has spoken to and for Rainbow PUSH Coalition frequently.
