From [HERE] National civil-rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson has suddenly become a frequent visitor to Lake County, where he said he will establish a new Rainbow PUSH Coalition office in North Chicago.
During his second trip to that town in two days, Jackson on Saturday helped lead a march and rally protesting police brutality in the Nov. 6 arrest and ensuing death of Darrin “Dagwood” Hanna. Hanna died in November 2011, a week after he was beaten and repeatedly shocked with a stun gun at the hands of North Chicago police.
About 300 men, women and children carried signs and chanted “No justice, no peace” as they walked the 12 blocks from 17th Street and Park Avenue — near where Hanna, 45, was arrested inside his apartment on a domestic battery charge — to City Hall on Lewis Avenue.
