Safe for terrorists as the u. K. s new quarantine ruins Holiday Plans and efforts to restart the spanish economy. And greece steps up its campaign to get the u. K. To return the parthenon marbles and seeks to undo the damage done by the british aristocrat took them. Hello thanks for joining us he marched alongside Martin Luther king jr and campaigned for a social justice right up until his death 2 weeks ago and now john lewis one of the most influential figures in the American Civil Rights movement has made a symbolic final journey his coffin was driven across the Edmund Pettus bridge in selma alabama on the way to his mom oriel service its 55 years since lewis led hundreds of black demonstrators across that very same bridge and was beaten unconscious state police violently broke up the march the violence was condemned across the United States the world through a National Spotlight on the struggle for racial equality lets bring in Andy Gallagher who is joining us from miami to talk us through how more hes being remembered and. Well at the moment john lewis is in the state building in Montgomery Alabama but i think the most significant part of his journey today was crossing the Edmund Pettus bridge in selma alabama he crossed over peacefully today but 55 years ago it was a very different scene as lewis and other people fighting for the right for the black vote were met with Alabama State troopers who beat luis to the ground one of 40 times in his actions as a civil rights pioneer that he was arrested and those pictures the still pictures in the moving pictures from that event was seen across the United States it really changed the fight to get Voting Rights for africanamericans but john lewis didnt stop there he was elected to office in 1986 and in the decades that followed john lewis has always fought for those less well off than most americans not just africanamericans but also native americans and members of the l. G. B. T. Q. Community he will be remembered as someone widely known as the conscience of the u. S. Congress someone who. Went to both sides of the aisle to get things done was widely respected got the president ial medal of freedom in 2011 so his legacy i think it although d this is a day of sadness he is being remembered for what he did during his time during his life he was known as somebody that really appealed to all generations and in particular at this moment in time with the death of george floyd was someone that young people often turn to for guidance he also spoke the day that Martin Luther king jr made his famous i have a dream speech and until his death was the last living person who spoke that day so once his body moves on from montgomery it will go to the rotunda in washington d. C. Early next week where members of the public will be able to pay their respects to someone known as an icon in the Civil Rights Era. And andy what sort of for reactions have you seen coming in. Because of because of the death of john lewis i mean a great deal of sadness but i think a great deal of reflection on what he actually did with his life this was someone who was a freedom rider a foot soldier of the Civil Rights Movement he started off as a member of the Student Nonviolent Committee met dr Martin Luther king jr when he was very young he called him the boy from troy thats where he was born in alabama and that name never really left him but i think although honestly he will be deeply missed in both the u. S. Congress and of course by those that knew him i think his legacy is the important thing here he literally spilt blood for the cause of the Civil Rights Era and continued in the decades that followed to fight for better education better housing he once again revisit the Voting Rights act to make sure it was solidified he always told people that would listen to him and that freedom is not given it fought for obviously through nonviolent means during that Civil Rights Era but i think his memory his legacy will last for years to come and in gallagher thank you well eric hamm is a political analyst and he says the fight for justice hasnt ended and john lewis is legacy very much resonates with people today. While we are certainly memorializing this civil rights icon john lewis and doing so in the fashion that he should certainly be awarded we cannot forget that there are so many protests so many demonstrations that are taking place today and john lewis is the the bearer of the flag bearer of which he has handed this baton on off to now a many of these demonstrators and protest that we are seeing in fact if you just go back just a few years ago when john lewis was still marching steel advocating for rights i mean he led a sit in and the u. S. Congress on the Chamber Floor and it was so a fact the House Republicans who were in charge at that time actually ordered c. Span to actually turn off the cameras so americans would not see it so clearly what we are seeing here is a new generation of activists a shaping and pushing it agitating for civil rights and social justice for all americans and that think that the moniker of john lewis to to to get in trouble necessary trouble good trouble we are seeing that take place today and clearly john lewis is actions and john lewis his words continue to resonate for Many Americans today.
