A stunning and poignant tribute to the late John Lewis, the man Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. called "The Boy from Troy" but as a man he became the "Conscience of the Congress".
His fearlessness and relentlessness in the face of adversity, and willingness to sacrfice his body and even his life as a member of the Civil Rights Movement and founding member of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee is what led to the Voting Rights Act and true change in America for the oppressed and disenfranchised.
"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." - John Lewis
