    Congressman John Lewis is right to skip the opening of the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum because Donald Trump is attending.http://www.clarionledger.com/story/news/2017/12/07/john-lewis-trump-museum-mississippi/931013001/ …

        I'd love the museum to do a last minute exhibit recounting hate crimes by individuals identifying as @realDonaldTrump supporters since his election. Wouldn't be a bad idea for audience to exercise their civil right to take a knee during Trump's speech.pic.twitter.com/kPdjdbXKYq

        Actually I’m tired of us removing ourselves from spaces we have every right and should be in. It is not him that should skip, it is Trump.

        Puzzled but not offended. I hope the Navajo delegate that spoke out explained to him this is a slur used by 45.

        Who invited Trumps rump anyway? He could care less about civil rights.

        Good for them. A racist opening a civil rights museum, while actual civil rights heroes sit out is dispicable, but I hope they stand their ground against evil. They've done it before

        So Donald Trump grabbing pussy won Presidency, Roy Moore molested teens trying to be a U.S senator. The people that voted for these guys are the same MF that want to crucify black folks for taking a kneel for injustice. How shameful is that? - So You Knowhttp://www.soyouknow.info/3/post/2017/11/donaldtrumproymoorevoters.html …

        So why would it make sense for Congressman John Lewis to go? He makes a bigger statement by not going-there will be other civil rights occasions. - DON'T GO!
