US civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has died at the age of 84.
He died peacefully on Tuesday morning surrounded by his family, they say in a statement.
Jackson fought for civil rights alongside Martin Luther King Jr in the 1960s and was twice a candidate for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination in 1984 and 1988.
He was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2017 and was hospitalised for observation last November after being diagnosed with a degenerative condition.
