“Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.” John Lewis was at the front of the Civil Rights movement, the Voter’s Rights Movement and was a founder of the Student Nonviolence Coordinating Committee. He was by the side of Martin Luther King, Jr. as they marched across the Edmund Petiss Bridge on the day that became known as Bloody Sunday. During Bloody Sunday he was beaten by police and jailed yet he continued his belief in nonviolence. He truly did his best to get in ”good trouble, necessary trouble, to return the soul of America”.
