Thank you, Congressman John Lewis
“When historians pick up their pens to write the story of the 21st century, let them say that it was your generation who laid down the heavy burdens of hate at last and that peace finally triumphed over violence, aggression and war. So I say to you, walk with the wind, brothers and sisters, and let the spirit of peace and the power of everlasting love be your guide.”
This is part of the final message imparted to us by Congressman John Lewis, whose legacy continues teaching us the lessons of the past and helping us dream up – and forge – a more just future. Thank you, Congressman, for your leadership, vision, bravery, and persistence.
