Today Paula's publisher dumped her & will not be releasing her newest book or any others that she was committed to author.

Fucking ridiculous.

Jesse Jackson appears to share your sentiments.

While it's advertisers/sponsors' assessments of public reaction and the potential financial impacts therein that are driving the current downfall of of Paula Deen (imo), I think the Rev's stance here is a rational one. Wonders never cease.

CHICAGO -- Civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson says he's agreed to help celebrity chef Paula Deen try to make amends for her past use of a racial slur, saying she shouldn't become a "sacrificial lamb" over the issue of racial intolerance.

Jackson told The Associated Press on Wednesday that Deen called him this week, and they discussed how she might recover.

Jackson says if Deen is willing to acknowledge mistakes and make changes, "she should be reclaimed rather than destroyed."

Jackson says he's more troubled by racial disparities in jobs, lending, health care, business opportunities and the criminal justice system (HOTD: Me too, Rev).
