RIP John Lewis

[lancing]

I thought I wouldn’t visit this forum anymore, but I felt compelled to visit to post a message in memoriam of the legendary congressman and American civil rights activist and leader: John Lewis. I heard this today (I’ll ad lib) and it seems fitting with some of the things I’ve heard and read about civil activism and radical action: “He’s a shining example that physical force is no match for soul force.”

RIP John Lewis

RIP John Lewis.

Thanks for posting this tribute lancing! What an incredible human being that graced this planet in the body and soul of John Lewis. I watched the funeral and every time an individual got up to say his or her eulogy I was so overwhelmed and cried and cried for hours on end. May we all carry on in the manner to which he lived his life or at least strive to do so in our daily lives.
