Hear our documentary including David’s interview with John Lewis, remarkable civil rights leader and “the conscience of Congress.” Mr . Lewis died at age 80 on July 17, 2020. In a country founded of the people, by the people and for the people: What does it mean to be an actively engaged citizen? How can we stimulate more critical thinking and a more deliberative approach by the citizenry? Why do so many Americans feel alienated from our democratic process? These were questions to which John Lewis devoted his inspiring life of public service.
