    "The most astounding thing about Congressman Lewis being left for dead on that bridge is how he got up, both physically and spiritually. When he recovered, he recovered without a trace of bitterness or hostility, and without losing hope." –@BerniceKinghttps://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/honoring-john-lewis-c-t-vivian-my-father-martin-luther-ncna1234478 …

        Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in prison and the first thing he did upon his release was preach peace, reconciliation and forgiveness. Two civil rights icons, Mandela and Lewis, we must never forget, and honour until the end of time.

        I've tried to be nonviolent. He's truly a saint. I revere him. I am not him though, and fail often. My past trained me, my mentors armed me. My conscience has an overdeveloped sense of justice, and maintains a scorched earth policy against fascism no matter where it lives.

        Yes that's just because who he was taught from he was taught from Doctor King and dr. King was not a bitter man. The King was a man of justice and love
