I lived in metro Detroit for eight years, during which time John Conyers was a good friend and mentor to me. He was a shining light in many ways and I will miss him. May he Rest In Peace and may his family be comforted.

I grew up in Michigan, and admired Conyers because he was always one of the only -- or the only -- person in Congress who opposed the succession of middle east wars. He was almost always alone in this, usually mocked, but always courageous.

Let’s be honest, you lived in the uber 1% wealthy, white enclave of Grosse Point, Michigan, Marianne. Stop manipulating!!! Isn’t that also where you simply walked away leaving the church you worked for completely bankrupt?

Rep. Conyers voted against the USA Patriot Act because he said it would roll back civil liberties. Then the watchlists were created. Recently, Federal judge rules terror watchlist violates constitutional rights of those on it - go.shr.lc/2PO0igw - @washtimes
