Annie Alexander agreed. "I'm out here tonight
because I'm curious," she said. "And Jesse did this to
. me. He brought me out. He brought me out of the jungle.
1 sure wish 1 could see him, but, for tonight, 1 will just
look up at his picture."
Keeping the political newcomers company were a
number of seasoned politicians and grassroots
organizers.
Said County Commissioner Mazie Woodruff: "We
O .. / 1 " *
..aw a muc lai^c ui peopie nere tonignt and they're excited
and they are ready. With that much excitement, we
couldn't help but be for him (Jackson)."
Added Alderman Virginia Newell, who led the group
in several verses of "We Shall Overcome," "Now is the
time. Jesse Jackson is making people respond that have
never responded before. He has excited the new voter, the
young voter and the people who have not had any hope."
Others, like Clifton Graves, who served as m^ter of
ceremonies for the opening, and Alderman Larry Little,
are also quick to point out that there's more to Jackson
than the excitement he has created.
Jackson has established himself as a serious candidate
who has gained credibility, said Graves.
Reading from a speech Jackson gave to his fellow
workers at the Chicago office of Operation PUSH, where
Jackson served as national president before taking a leave
of absence to seek the Democratic presidential nomination,
Graves said, "We're moving on up. At the '72 convention,
George McGovern was the nominee ... Reubin
Askew was the keynoter .... I was just fightin' for a seat
in the hall ... and 1 beat 'im in New Hampshire.
"Movin' on up. Alan Cranston -- a powerful senator
from California -- and I beat him. Fritz Hollings ...
When he was governor of South Carolina, I couldn't use
the bathroom in the state capitol. I beat Fritz Hollings.
"We're movin' on up. John Glenn was up there orbiting
the earth when I was scufflin' for dimes down here.
Now he is gone, and I'm still in the race.
We-are-movin'-on-up."
Those words brought cries of "Win, Jesse, Win!"
from the crowd of more than 300 -- a logical progression
from last fall's "Run, Jesse, Run!"
But most of the people at the opening would be the
first to say that Jackson is a long way from being the
Democratic presidential nominee. Still they will not give
up hope or the fight.

"If Jackson doesn't prevail," Newell said, "I hope he
will endorse a candidate we can ralty behind. These
young people out here tonight will be expecting more
from Jackson's campaign. They will be looking for
school board members,. county commissioners and
aldermen."
Said Velma Hopkins, a local Jackson organizer, "Jesse
Jackson is fighting for freedom, dignity and love. Don't
say he is not going to win. He has already won."
While Jackson may not come in first place, said
Graves, he will still be victorious. "It serves no purpose
for him to finish first if he came across the finish line with
an empty wagon," Graves said. "But if he comes in last
with a wagonload of school board members, congressmen
and county commissioners, he still comes in
first place."
Last week's opening also served as a fund-raiser,
garnering $2,000 in contributions, said the Rev. Carlton
Eversley, a campaign coordinator.
"The reality is that Rev. Jackson is unable to run TV
?ds or radio spots because he has less money than the
other candidates, but he has still shown that he can win,"
Eversley said.
The campaign office will be open weekdays 9 a.m.-8
p.m. Eversley said. "We need volunteers, contributions
and people who need to be registered to vote," he added.

side, two distinct political economies exist in the city of
Boston; an underpaid labor market for the poor and
racial minorities, and a labor market of the white, upwardly
mobile middle-to-upper classes. This is the root
cause of the racist rhetoric, the anti-busing polemics of
the recent past, and the regular outbursts of racistmotivated
violence against people of color.

racism as the key for understanding the rise of the Right
