[paulnolan]

The Rev Jesse Jackson has called for California’s ban on gay marriage to be struck down.

The Baptist minister and civil rights activist spoke at a gathering outside the San Francisco appeals court where the latest hearings on the ban are taking place.

Rev Jackson has previously opposed Proposition 8 but stopped short of supporting gay marriage.
