The
Foundation
to
Combat
Antisemitism
(FCAS)
has
announced
it
will
be
running
a
Super
Bowl
LVIII
commercial
that
will
feature
Dr.
Clarence
B.
Jones,
a
confidante
of
the
late,
great
Dr.
Martin
Luther
King,
Jr.
Jones
helped
King
draft
his
historic
“I
Have
a
Dream”
speech
which
he
delivered
at
March
on
Washington
back
on
August
28,
1963.
Now
a
lawyer,
entrepreneur,
and
investment
banker,
Jones
was
also
King’s
legal
counsel
and
one
of
his
strategic
advisors.
Currently,
Jones
is
the
Chairman
of
the
Spill
the
Honey
Foundation,
which
was
founded
by
New
England
Patriots
owner
Robert
Kraft
and
acts
to
fight
against
racism
and
antisemitism
via
art
and
education.
The
commercial’s
goal
is
to
foster
unity
between
Black
and
Jewish
groups
in
the
face
of
hate.
“I
know
I
can
speak
for
Dr.
Martin
Luther
King
Jr.
when
I
say
without
a
doubt
that
the
Civil
Rights
movement
(including
the
passage
of
the
Civil
Rights
and
Voting
Acts)
would
not
have
occurred
without
the
unwavering
and
largely
unsung
efforts
of
the
Jewish
people,”
said
Dr.
Jones
in
a
statement.
“With
hate
on
the
rise,
it
is
as
important
as
ever
that
all
of
us
stand
together
and
speak
out.
Silence
is
not
an
option.
I’m
glad
that
I
have
lived
long
enough
to
partner
with
Robert
Kraft
and
FCAS
to
continue
to
spread
the
message
to
the
widest
possible
audience
–
the
Super
Bowl.”
Added
Robert
Kraft,
“The
work
Dr.
Jones
has
done
over
the
course
of
his
entire
life
and
career
is
the
embodiment
of
FCAS’
mission
to
build
bridges
and
stand
up
to
Jewish
hate
and
all
forms
of
hate.
In
the
time
we
have
spent
together
and
through
his
work,
I
have
become
a
huge
fan
of
Dr.
Jones,
and
I
am
proud
to
spotlight
all
that
he
has
done
for
our
nation.”

Kraft

Jones

Super
Bowl
