(Robert Reynolds Jones Sr.)


Popular Quotes

Jones, like many religious leaders at the time was an inveterate racist. He not only branded anyone advocating against segregation as “in opposition to God”. Jones also solicited the support of the Ku Klux Klan, and like many clerics would never condemn the KKK beatings, tortures, lynchings and murders.
