PLEASE HELP 25 POINTS How does John Lewis' life show that he believed democracy was not just a state? Write 5 sentences.

Lewis reiterated his belief in nonviolent protest, a philosophy that he learned from Dr. Martin Luther King,Jr., and used the phrase he became most famous for, which is getting into “good trouble, necessary trouble” for the sake of American democracy. Lewis included by asking for this moment in time to be “your generation who laid down the heavy burdens of hate at last and that pace finally triumphed over violence, aggression and war,” adding,”let the spirit of peace and the power of everlasting love be your guide.” He showed us why the soul of our nation is worth fighting for. “Democracy is not a state. It is an act, and each generation must do its part.” John lewis was the type of public servant that i strive to be, one who believes in working together with all people for the good of all people. But also who understood the role of power in making change.
