So many of us are down in the mouth right now, and would do us good to remember him and be inspired again. Lewis and Obama!<br /><br />Lovely photos of you and your daughter having lunch. I have yet to do that and look forward to the day. And congratulations on Lucy's book and getting your name on the cover! That's a sign of a good person, a recognition that we don't do these things alone and we rely on others.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052375488090209961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-82550307367844079372020-08-01T23:19:21.533-04:002020-08-01T23:19:21.533-04:00Just seeing a picture of Obama makes me ache insid...Just seeing a picture of Obama makes me ache inside for missing his decency, intellect, and the hope that his election gave me. It's a bitter thing, living through the Trump years. And now John Lewis is gone. We are so much the poorer for his loss.

That vital message of love in action is continuing to be carried down the generations, this time by President Obama. Imagine the numbers of young people who will follow in the footsteps of those who came before them, inspired by this eulogy for John Lewis.<br /><br />I look forward to buying a copy of Lucy McBath's book in paperback with the additional chapter and will see if our public library is willing to purchase it for their collection in addition to the hardback version they purchased at my request.<br />amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09212213177713917828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-91102167894757110732020-08-01T11:38:57.494-04:002020-08-01T11:38:57.494-04:00Thank you for this post and that link and good luc...Thank you for this post and that link and good luck with that new chapter.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376645220662546020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-35995787523406861162020-08-01T10:47:43.858-04:002020-08-01T10:47:43.858-04:00I almost can't believe how far we have fallen ...I almost can't believe how far we have fallen since the days of Obama.
