Jesse Jackson - Why we MUST listen to him!

I am listening to Today in Westminster - if you get a chance do listen again. I have just heard Jesse Jackson give one of the most eloquent rebuttals of this government's totally misguided approach to youth crime. He talked of children growing up in the light or in the dark. He reminded us of how plants denied light do not develop properly - he chastised this country saying our approach to children was to "lock them up not lift them up". What a breath of fresh air.
