53 years ago today, the Voting Rights Act was signed into law by President Johnson. I shed a little blood on that bridge in Selma and friends of mine gave their lives so that no person would be denied their right to vote. Now do your part—get registered, and vote.

These young people cannot wait until politicians see fit to face the truth and develop an immigration reform policy that helps us live up to the principles of true democracy.

I am deeply disturbed by the outcome of the Helsinki summit. The leader of this nation takes an oath before God to defend this country from all enemies both foreign and domestic, but this president is not defending the American way of life.https://johnlewis.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/lewis-denounces-trump-s-weakness-russian-intervention-2016-election …

John Lewis Retweeted
Average working families aren’t seeing a boost from the GOP tax law, but “the top-earning 1 percent of households — those earning more than $607,000 a year — will pay a combined $111 billion less this year in federal taxes.”https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/11/opinion/trump-republicans-tax-cuts-inequality.html …

57 years ago today I was released from Mississippi State Penitentiary, better known as Parchman, after being arrested in the Jackson, MS bus station for using a so-called "white" restroom during the Freedom Rides.

Your vote matters. If it didn’t, why would some people keep trying to take it away?

We are sick and tired of seeing little babies taken from their mothers. That's not right, it's not fair, and history will not be kind to us. As a nation and as a people we can do much better. We may have to turn America upside down to turn it right-side up.

The right to vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool or instrument we have in a democratic society. We must use it.

Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.

I never thought I would live to see a day when the Supreme Court of the United States would again make a decision as inhumane as Dred Scott v. Sandford or Korematsu v. United States.
