The documentary John Lewis: Good Trouble. Released shortly after Lewis’ death, this documentary retells the seldom taught history of John Lewis, who displayed exemplary moral courage and sacrifice, starting from giving sermons to his chickens, to participating in non-violent protest, to speaking in the March on Washington, and ascending to a house representative for Georgia. Did you know: John Lewis was always a fierce champion for strong environmental protections, as he deeply understood the link between social, racial, and environmental justice?
