Rep John Lewis, a leader in the civil rights movement and United States congressman, has died at the age of 80. He was one of the Top civil right leaders who helped to organise the 1963 March On Washington D.C. He was also a Goergia Democrat who represented Atlanta.
Rep. John Lewis was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year.
He has been active for decades and it was further triggered when the Former President, Barack Obama won the presidential election in 2008.
A family member described Lewis as a “loving brother and father”.
“It is with inconsolable grief and enduring sadness that we announce the passing of U.S. Rep. John Lewis, He was honored and respected as the conscience of the U.S. Congress and an icon of American history, but we knew him as a loving father and brother. He was a stalwart champion in the on-going struggle to demand respect for the dignity and worth of every human being. He dedicated his entire life to non-violent activism and was an outspoken advocate in the struggle for equal justice in America. He will be deeply missed,” the statement from his family said.
Barack Obama also described him as a hero.
“Not many of us get to live to see our own legacy play out in such a meaningful, remarkable way,” Mr. Obama wrote. “John Lewis did. And thanks to him, we now all have our marching orders to keep believing in the possibility of remaking this country we love until it lives up to its full promise,” Obama said.
