JONATHAN TURLEY: Speaker Jeffries' brother sounds chilling call to arms
Hasan Kwame Jeffries, a history professor and brother of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, called for citizens to emulate John Brown's violent abolitionist tactics, stating 'by any means necessary' to combat white supremacy. The article criticizes this as a dangerous endorsement of political violence, referencing Brown's 1856 Pottawatomie massacre and other academics like Stacey Patton who have similarly invoked Brown as a model for activism.
