Rev. Jesse Jackson, 84, was hospitalized Wednesday for observation due to progressive supranuclear palsy, a rare neurodegenerative condition he has managed for over a decade.
Ashley Carnahan is a writer at Fox News Digital.
The Rainbow PUSH Coalition, a progressive organization Jackson formed in 1996 by merging two groups he founded earlier, said he has been managing his PSP condition for more than a decade.
"He was originally diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease; however, last April, his PSP condition was confirmed. The family appreciates all prayers at this time," the organization said.
