I'm curious - what did Breadbasket actually advocate, and what did it accomplish?

I occasionally see Jackson turn to conservative themes of self-reliance, education and independence, which makes his hard left "blacks are owed a living" theme all the more disquieting.

Those are the themes that Operation Breadbasket emphasized! The idea was to help people help themselves up by their own bootstraps! The gist was to help teach people skills that would help them move forward.

Then (to parhaphrase an old Porsche ad), we woke up.
