"Your vote is precious... almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool we have to create a more perfect union."
John Lewis nearly died 56 years ago today, on #BloodySunday
The best way to honor his #GoodTrouble is by passing HR1 and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act ☑️
It's the anniversary of #BloodySunday, a symbolic event in civil rights history.
But the struggle continues, and our daily efforts as technologists impact its progress.
My Python students learned about this. Some of my colleagues found the notes useful.

On this anniversary of #BloodySunday,resisters,anti-fascists & advocators of free speech & the right to protest,
join in solidarity with those who struggle nationally & globally. When Trump sought to install his dictatorship,the world rallied with us against him
#Resistance
On this #BloodySunday I’ll share a video from a 2019 Selma trip I took on behalf of @southerncenter with @BeeForGeorgia and @NewAmericanLd. An elder’s car stalled on the bridge and these young leaders of color pushed it across. Metaphorical perfection.
A reminder of what #GoodTrouble often looked like - as we mark the 56th anniversary of #BloodySunday #Selma #JohnLewis
