Voices of the Civil Rights Movement: Congressman John Lewis


This video was uploaded to YouTube on June 24, 2008. 

Forty years ago Congressman John Lewis could never have imagined that he could become a member of the House of Representatives. He speaks of the lessons of the civil rights movement: how Americans must come together "to create one house, one family" because "history teaches us we are all in the same boat."
