      Tonight, the world grieves for the great John Lewis. In my 1st yr in the Senate, I had the privilege of traveling w/ John & much of the Congressional Black Caucus to Nelson Mandela’s funeral. The entire trip to Johannesburg, John regaled us w/ stories of being alongside Dr. King.pic.twitter.com/IKK6It3wvD

      2/x One of the original Freedom Riders, John was a young man at the dawn of the Civil Rights movement & he survived a brutal beating on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma. At age 23, he was a keynote speaker at the March on Washington, on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.

      3/x To say he was an icon, to say he was a hero, understates it. He had a quiet grace, a passion for justice & an indomitable courage that helped transform this Nation. I am blessed & humbled to have known John & to have heard his deep wisdom firsthand.

          instead of just words why not some action - action of courage - stand up for what is right - stop supporting a man who stands for everything John Lewis fought against - Take a lesson and show some action

          Then learn from him. Risk everything to do what’s right. Short of the that...stop talking.

          Please think of John Lewis and his legacy as you move forward. Kind words for a true legend of civil rights.

          Are you blessed and humbled to know Donald Trump? If not, switch sides.
