Watch: John Lewis’ Coffin Makes Final Selma Bridge Crossing | NBC News
NO ONE CARES! 💩
YES THEY DO 😡
No thanks ! Another race baiter getting the royal treatment for what ?
Listen to sound of the deep south. (Those bugs)
You will be missed Mr John Lewis, fly high as a eagle
Rest in peace brother ✊🏿
seems now that Black lives matter will position the black colour to be overequal to all other colours — world is gone mad
Very fitting tribute for Mr Lewis. Rest in peace sir
It’s time to rename this bridge the “John Lewis Bridge.” After all, Edmund Pettus was a racist, Confederate Officer.
And you are a loser and I’m willing to bet you work at Wendy’s or taco bell messing up orders like the low IQ simp that you are. Flipping dope on the side.

We need to burn that bridge down.
If they put up a john lewis statue, we need to tear it down. Statues should be illegal.
People say he fight against the injustice but i tell u he fight evil with good but still no change time to apply the way of blood for blood there is no peace without bloodshed amen
Stop dreaming get up and do something
Why don’t you agree 😕
Rest in peace John Lewis
Thank you John Lewis, you beautiful man. You’ve been our courageous teacher for so long. It’s time to pass the torch and rest easy that we will NEVER FORGET the lessons we have learned. I miss you already. 😔
I’m watching them take his casket out of the limousine so that they can put him in the capital so he can lie there kind of emotional ..😪😥❤☝️🤲
😔😓
Im not surprise we was corrupt. Most likely was a slave trader like many more pf his race and any other race.
RIP, Senator Lewis. Thank you for your service to our country.
We need to rename this bridge the “John Lewis Bridge.” After all, Edmund Pettus was a racist Confederate Officer. Spread the word.
@easyguitarsongs
Andrew Jackson owned roughly 150 slaves, and George Washington owned 123 slaves.
@easyguitarsongs
I completely agree. John Brown terrified every white racist in America! Just think, to be courageous enough to take up position in a fire engine house and take 60 citizens of Harper’s Ferry hostage to initiate a slave revolt was almost beyond belief. No other abolitionist was ever so brazen. When they wrote about John Brown, they tried to accuse him of being a mentally deranged lunatic. Needless to say, John Brown was of sound mind and they knew this. Southerners were afraid, however that more brave men like John Brown would come out of the woodwork and wreak havoc upon the South. There’s a statue of John Brown in Kansas City, Kansas.
@John Brown 👍🇺🇸
@JOSEPH AMARO
What does “us” mean?
I hope yall arent being serious. I really hope arent really such snowflakes that youd want to tear down an entire monument because it doesnt cater to your sensibilities.
God bless you Mr. Lewis. Rest easy…..
God bless this man. Such a shame he had to leave. Huge respect for what he did
Yep I’m so sad and upset 😰
WHO IS THAT WOMAN IN A YELLOW SHIRT AND JEANS,!!!!,STRANGE TO BE DRESSED THAT WAY!
Hey John, TRUMP IS STILL YOUR PRESIDENT 🥳🥳
I hope John is reborn…
@meena bhashyam I know ,Right?
😭 so sad:(
WE LOVE U JOHN ❤️
😢 Inspiring man.
Gave me chills.
LOL, taking Lewis back to the place of his most traumatic life event and rolling him across it again. Hardly what one would call RIP.
We need new infrastructure all over America, rebuilt roads, bridges, etc. That old bridge should have been replaced a long time ago. If they put a new one up there, hope they name it the George Wallace bridge.
America has lost a giant of a man. One who fought for freedom and justice for all. Rest easy John Lewis 🇧🇸🇧🇸
RIP you’re works are forever
R.I.P. Mr. John Lewis!!
https://youtu.be/syGAjxN5y-E 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Any comments on his record in Washington? Wonder why not
Beautiful. Rest In Peace.
With all the collective revulsion with the executive branch of “our government”. It was uplifting to see a Great Patriot crossing that bridge!
I’m certain Dr. King was there to greet him when he reached his final destination!
What a waste of tax payers money.
WE SHALL OVERCOME SOME DAY THANKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK 🙏🏽🌏
Sniff sniff. Lose the weight to live longer. Haha
Rest in Peace Mr. Lewis❤🙏
may we all be this courageous.
Man I was minding my own business at home, just had a glass of 🍷 trying to sing and do the dance routine to New Edition’s “Your Not My Kind of Girl” and then this video pops up as a post that I might be interested in watching…SERIOUSLY😱!!!
Man…what a send of to glory!!!,
R.I.P
I thumbs down the 83 people who disliked this for what ever reason they did.
Lewis will be remembered exactly like MLK, riot starters
you are a disturbed individual. don’t forget to take off the white sheet on your head. luckily..racists like you will slowly slither away under their rocks.
So full of hatred for no reason
RIP John Lewis. What a remarkable man!
They could not deny this crossing or the completion of his journey, their senseless acts were small things to a giant of character, may the Creator bless you, John Lewis !!!
Thank you for your service Congressman Lewis. Now that you are departed, we need to change the godforsaken name of that bridge. John Lewis Memorial Bridge has a certain ring to it…
As he crosses a bridge name for a confederate slave owner who committed atrocities against blacks….the media called it “the historical Pettus bridge.” Proof the left has no clue about history.
RIP
For a free, first class, no strings, insight, into COVID 19, watch Dr John Campbell on youtube. Where he has been discussing COVID 19 since late January. And posting new videos for us, several times a day, everyday.
R.I.P alles gut und mein Beileid zu den Familien von germany Black germany
Thank you and Rest peacefully Mr. Lewis🙏❤️🌹🌹🌺🌺
And yet, John Lewis body had to be driven across a bridge named after a man who was politically active in the Ku Klux Klan, serving as a GRAND DRAGON. This is a DISGRACE. At least, this bridge should have been named after John before he died. Shame on this Nation because it has NO SHAME!
RIP Sir
This symbolizes the passing of the torch for the generation of today and it is a rallying cry for the oppressed to rise up and start a new movement along with all of the political organizations
Thank you John Robert Lewis for all your hard work. May you Rest In Peace in heaven.
Edmund Pettus was a racist Confederate officer. This bridge needs to be renamed, immediately!
1 Thessalonians 5:17
Pray without ceasing.
Revelation 21:8
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Shalom
Rest well Frater and thank you for your service and fierce advocacy for Justice for Black people!
Wish I was there to pay my respect to a great man.
This bridge should be renamed the John Lewis memorial bridge in honor of the late civil rights leader
Iconic….. thank you John Lewis
May Mr Lewis’ soul continue to rest in peace, thank you for paving the way.
Rest in peace ❤️🙏🙏 and thank you for all your support 🙏💞 and service.
This is very emotional RIP John Lewis.
Remove the name!!!
Why await until someone dies, to talk of their good works, it’s like giving flowers when someone dies, give flowers 🌸 when they are alive. Thanks son of God for all you have done. You’re happy now son, in God’s kingdom, you’re at peace, no more pains, you’re 😃, watch over this wonderful Country.
Please rename this bridge, “John Lewis Crossing Bridge”, with a picture of our brother John, in the center, under a crown 👑.
respect my king
They should name the Bridge after him
Eternal Peace my brother.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. … We pray for those who have passed away and call on God’s love and mercy to grant them rest and eternal happiness with Him in Heaven.
John Lewis, a true American hero, was lead by a love and determination born in the Lord God alone. John Robert Lewis Bridge. Fitting.
GET READY FOR A MUCH DESERVED RENAMING OF THIS BRIDGE, THANK YOU “GOOD TROUBLE”
The Legacy goes On.
Thank you sir! ♥️
Thank you Mr John Lewis 💖 for paving the way for your oppressed brothers and sisters. May God grant you peace in Heaven 🙏🏾🕊️
