Congressman John Robert Lewis Statue Dedication Dekalb County Georgia Courthouse

 


by C. Henry Adams


On Saturday, August 24th 2024.  I witness the Congressman John Robert Lewis Statue Dedication before the Dekalb County Georgia Courthouse.  I rode the MARTA Train with my bicycle in tow to the Decatur MARTA Train Station.   Then, walked with my bike out of the under ground station to the area of the Courthouse above it to watch what I call a historic moment in our time.
 




Jennifer Holliday sung during the John Lewis unveiling on the Decatur Square.




Xenona Clayton spoke at the ceremony....





The crowd of people were large in number and the security was tight.  There were volunteers on duty passing out water.


Congressman John Robert Lewis served in the United States House of Representatives for Georgia's 5th congressional district from 1987 until his death in 2020.  I am glad that I had the chance to meet with him growing up as a young college student. I am glad that I paid my respects at his memorial service in the State of Georgia Capital Rotunda.
