Good Trouble: Words From John Lewis

Heather Cox Richardson, in her newsletter, reminded me of these words from John Lewis, who wrote them one year before his death, five years ago, yesterday:

“Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Do not become bitter or hostile. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. We will find a way to make a way out of no way.” — John Lewis

If you have never read the graphic novel trilogy March, about John Lewis, you really should.

Peace (and hope, even in the eye of the storm),
Kevin
