A long time back he was one of the few that took a stand and told black folks to stop with the word.
Now his teen daughter is an aspiring rap star. He's apparently not thrilled with it, but is relenting. But his one demand? She's not allowed to use the N word. Now whether or not that lasts beyond 17 or 18 years of age, we don't know, but I do give Jesse credit for stepping in now and in the past.

Dad Bans N-Word from Her Raps
Jesse Jackson is staring to bend a little on his 16-year-old daughter doing rap music, but he's standing firm on one rule -- absolutely NO use of the n-word in her rhymes.
A rep for Ashley Jackson tells TMZ ... the teen grew up with zero tolerance for all profanity, and now that she has a budding career in music ... ain't a damn thing changed.
You might recall, Jesse famously encouraged all hip-hop artists to stop using the n-word back in 2006. We're told he gave Ashley the same speech ... with better results this time around.
Ashley -- who lives with Mom in L.A.-- doesn't use offensive slang in her day-to-day vocabulary, anyway ... and has no plans to do so in her music. We're told she's more into making music with a socially conscious message.
Like father, like daughter.
