This is a thing of beauty.



I love that picture of Lewis. He looks so tired, yet will not give up. Not that long ago he was tossed under the bus.

However he is a champion to me.

This is some of the most inspiring, majestic, and stirring music I know- and I feel like it's somehow appropriate here.

other than the Dem. House Reps of course.
The Periscope App and Facebook live and Twitter sharing made this the protest event that it has become.
The revolution will be live-streamed.
