Watching the John Lewis funeral, I see love in the pews and at the pulpit. I see empathy, decency, and justice. I see the power of “good trouble.” This is ALSO our America. Let us not forget it or forsake it.

I don’t mean to be cynical & memorials like this are important. But many people honoring John Lewis today did things that caused him great consternation while he was here. Celebrating people once they’re dead is easy enough; honoring their ideals while we’re alive can take work.

@marwilliamson You’ve really lost your way. It’s time to retire.
He planned his own service. Just shut the f*ck up.
