He chose Chicago as the place to build his career because of the strength of Jesse Sr.'s support there. Nevertheless, the younger man has emphasized and established his own bona fides in politics and in activism in the African-American community. In the 1980s, he loudly opposed South Africa's apartheid regime, spending his 21st birthday in a Washington jail cell after participating in protests outside South Africa's embassy in that city.
