John Lewis, American Hero


I am old enough to vividly remember the Civil Rights struggle, and to see the brave, nonviolent activists stand up against vicious racism. Notable among them was a young John Lewis. I drew this portrait of him a few years ago, feeling that his history, courage and determination are written upon his face. He fought the good fight. May he rest in peace.
