"Ordinary people with extraordinary vision can redeem the soul of America by getting in what I call good trouble, necessary trouble. Voting and participating in the democratic process are key. The vote is the most powerful nonviolent change agent you have in a democratic society.
You must use it because it is not guaranteed.
You can lose it." - John Lewis, 1940-2020
