The news of John Lewis' passing is hard to bear.
I watched some of the procession across the Selma bridge, and speeches today by President Obama and others.
Last week I took delivery of all 3 graphic novels in his series, March.
I read them, rapt, in about 48 hours.
Uneducated me hadn't realized how many times he was beaten, mocked, cursed at and reviled in his peaceful efforts to end segregation.
What a loss.
Rest in Power good sir.
