MLK



HATE IS TOO HEAVY
A BURDEN TO BEAR.

Congressman John Lewis, in The Art and Discipline of Nonviolence


I was entirely moved and humbled by this interview with John Lewis, the Congressman from Georgia who marched with Martin Luther King in Selma and who has devoted his life to the priniciples of nonviolence and, above all, Love. I don't know of any better philosophy or way to live your life.

    uplifting post. John Lewis is a gem...he's been in the struggle since the beginning, and he takes a licking and keeps on ticking! There should be a John Lewis Day.
