    Why did it have to take over a hundred years before he gets pardoned?

      Because Jackson was a black man an at the time it was illegal for men to take women across state lines for sex. And no body up till now really cared.

        Somehow? The president needs to earn so plus points coming from people of color that is why he did it

          I think what the family was after is getting his name cleared of all the charges since they consider it as a hate crime

        Well now we can say that Jack Johnson can now really rest in peace.

          At least we can say now that there is one thing that the president has done right during his term

            This woman is fortunate to work for a corporation that told her to take time for her son after her store manager told her she quit when she couldn't make it for her shift. She still has her job and her manager is looking for a new one.

              I have heard of this story online a couple of days ago. Her manager deserves to be fired with what she said

              How I wish something similar happened to the manager just to teach her a lesson

            There should be more lawyers assigned to cold cases like this. To give the families of the parties closure.
