Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) Passing Strikes Amid Our Civil Rights Movement Era Memories And The Current Unrest



Tributes: Rest in paradise freedom fighter and civil rights icon, US Rep. John Lewis. You fought the good fight. Your life exemplifies prosperous change. Your legacy shows us all the path towards tangible, fruitful, regenerative, and lasting change if we can follow it. You taught us that it is doable, although it is tedious and time-consuming. We pray that this era of 'instant gratification' and 'everything on the fingertips' has learned something sentimental from your legacy, the path of patient, civil rights movement era.......




The Legacy: Although the civil rights movement era leaders and citizens were oppressed, segregated, and discriminated, these influential black leaders and citizens held their heads up higher and the American flag high. Thus, they influenced many, changed many critics' minds, brought lasting change, and made considerable differences without burning, looting, burning the AmericanπŸ—½ flag πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ, or incite violence upon anyone, including those instigated them.

My friends, the civil rights movement era leaders, and citizens, set a tall order for us to uplift. Look no further, but our contemporary memory of Rep. John Lewis or Ambassador Andrew Young and alike's legacies. We can learn, live, love, laugh, and long in their path, to foster and further the change that can improve and not impoverish our lives. The difference between the civil rights movement era and our current civil unrest is striking.

The current unrest has only hardened hearts and indeed eroding the gains we have made as a society. No one can bring lasting change among the people through violence, looting, and burning, which in some instances killed and harm innocent people, casualty. The psychology/science of mind tells us that change through deception, cohesion, and or force never lasts and wins any mind. Instead, it poses the reaction, awaiting the favorable timing in the nearest future.

Eyes On The Prize: Sometimes, in America, we take our freedom and individual advocacy endeavors for granted, indicative of how spoiled brats we can get. Let's pray that the current events don't tarnish our bull's eyes and eagle πŸ¦… laser focus from the grand prize in life. May God almighty bless you all and these United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ of AmericaπŸ—½ to continue to be the land of free and home of the brave πŸ™. #BlackLoveMaters πŸ–€πŸ’œπŸ’™πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ§‘❤πŸ’ŸπŸ’—
