Thought For The Day

 
Farewell To One Of America’s Finest
The Conscience of Congress Has Left The Building

July 18, 2020

  
The world has lost an unrelenting, unrepenting Freedom Fighter.
An original Freedom Rider,

Arrested over forty times.
 
A life-long champion/practitioner of non-violent protest, 
Good troublemaker. 
Marched with King in Selma. 

Brutally beaten by police on the Edmund Pettus Bridge on Bloody Sunday.Graced the United States Congress with his presence.
Gone too soon.  

Though you lived through so much turmoil,
You made a real difference.
Rest in peace.

John Lewis
 
Jon Butcher - Good Bye Saving Grace
