Happy birthday John Lewis.

Happy birthday and loving memories of the great John Lewis, who would’ve turned 82 today. An unfulfilled plan from early on in our collaboration was to go fishing back at a pond back on his family’s land in Alabama— so that’s what I’ve conjured here over the weekend.

Today I’ll be privately enjoying memories of our time together, and reflecting on his lifetime of commitment as we move through an absolutely terrifying time, in which the very survival of democracy is in question. Love to everybody.
