'The struggle continues' - Jackson inspires change, action at SCSU with
    voter tour Latoya Taylor, a South Carolina State University senior,
    believes she's a person who can do something about the injustice and   
    inequality which the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson says still continues for
    African-Americans. Taylor first saw Jackson during her freshman year at   
    SCSU and was even more compelled to hear him speak this year as part
    of a voter education tour that is taking Jackson and his Rainbow PUSH  
    Coalition across the state.
