I agree - my appreciation to Erika Berg for the loving tribute in today’s substack here from @50501 MOVEMENT. I’ll be downtown at our state capital with my resistance mass protest sign.
“Our children and their children will ask us, ‘What did you do?’”
At age 16, Lewis told himself, “Whenever you see something that is not right and not fair, you have a moral obligation to continue to speak up, to speak out.
What will I tell my children and their children? To (potential) allies, he said, “Take a long, hard look down the road you will have to travel once you have made a commitment to work for change.”
For he believed that the struggle for change was a lifelong commitment, requiring personal risk, tireless dedication, and collective discipline – across generations.
Thank you. It felt like a privilege to get to share what I learned about him. Only a week ago, I’m sure I didn’t know anymore about his life and legacy than anyone who has commented.
No Erika, your tribute painted such a meaningful description…I wish I had enough time to customize my protest sign in his honor better. I wanted to share your story of late civil rights leader John Lewis, and help spread the word. I haven’t heard what were the final numbers from Thursday-till-today crowd numbers. Thank you!
I really appreciate that. As I’m not an historian, I had to research and learn a lot before I felt prepared to start writing, an inspiring journey from beginning to end.
Let's make Good Trouble and Strike! We must stop The tRump and his administration from hell! The demonic tRump and his billionaire oligarch only care about money. LET'S SHUT THIS FUCKIN’ COUNTRY DOWN!!!
General Strike US supporters are organizing a National Strike. The most powerful strikers are the workers who are employed by the national multi-billionaire companies like Amazon, chain stores and restaurants who have locations in nearly every state across the country, like Amazon, Walmart, McDonald's along with technology and auto, like Tesla, Apple, Meta, Alphabet workers like these will have the most impact. Keep your money in your own communities and support small grocery stores, restaurants and businesses instead.
The most important thing Non-Strikers and everyone can do is stop making the greedy billionaire oligarchs even richer. STOP SHOPPING and BUYING from interNATIONAL BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES! Make yourselves richer and buy GROCERIES ONLY until we get the Limp Dick Traitor and his evil administration from hell, out of the White House and out of our government!!!
Seems you are the only individual commenting with the right idea. I can picture John Lewis rolling his eyes and pleading, "Come on people. Do something!" I got kicked off the chat chanels on 50501 and Indivisible for trying to build consensus for active but non-violent confrontation with trump supporters. To be honest General Strike treated me the same way. I wish you luck in your effort. I hope you are more successful than I was. My honest opinion is 50501 et al are nothing more than rallying points for the vote in 2026. The belief is the midterms will save us. The fact is the history of the Democratic leadership is one that coincides nicely with the right wing. Like good cop, bad cop they're paid from the same till.
I understand your frustration. I hoped this series would encourage readers to think outside the box of traditional protesting (within the choir) and to be braver. I have been arrested more times than I can count for peaceful, nonviolent civil disobedience and lately have found protesting solo - in the opposing team’s element - can be the best way to bridge divided. After reading this, hopefully folks will exert more initiative rather than continuing to wait for others to organize actions that suit them.
I commend you for your efforts. What you describe takes guts. I have demonstrated similarly with 3 friends. We had some encouraging outcomes. I've had some health issues during the past 2 months that have curtailed my activity. Hopefully back on track soon. My greatest frustration is with large organizations with massive member rolls who will not allow discussion of confrontational demonstration organization on their sites. They claim peaceful confrontation promotes violence. My position is, if you're not creating good trouble you're by enlarge wasting effort. If the point of the problem is at position A, and you decide to expend all your people enegy at point B to avoid confrontation, you are undermining you effort. The message is watered down. And massive watered down messaging, though impressive, can be ignored by the opposition.
This current, illegal administration, has to be taken down!! They lied, they cheated, more than once!!! They cannot be trusted to bring back the voting rights act!! They will do whatever they can to take away our voices!!! They did not win!!! Read, share, and stand up for the truth!!! No gerrymandering anywhere!!! NO Electoral College!! Every legal American gets to vote!!! Doesn’t matter where they live!!! Runt WILL NOT ALLOW a midterm election!!! If he does, he will just rig it again, he believes he’s gotten away with it!!! No one is talking about him losing, WHY??? WE have massive election evidence!!! It is equal to the Epstein horror!!!!

Our small town of Easton, PA is having a rally this Saturday in a park to commemorate Lewis “Good Troubles”. Our rally “No Lings” had 1k attendees- by far largest protest EVER in our town! We hope to match it on the 19th.
This is a master class in resisting injustice. I realize we need classes on resisting the unconstitutional actions dismantling our country, our bureaucracy, and our freedoms. And unshakable
I will be going to a rally honoring John Lewis in my town tonight.

Thank you so much for this amazing tribute to John Lewis!
Retelling history as done here. Keep it alive each generation. Burning books will not erase history. Indigenous people history is still alive as well.

This is a master class in resisting injustice. I realize we need classes on resisting the unconstitutional actions dismantling our country, our bureaucracy, and our freedoms. And unshakable
