John Lewis refuses to attend Civil Rights museum opening because Trump is attending4
The Civil Rights icon encourages citizens to visit museum AFTER Trump leaves town
By thegrio - December 7, 2017
“After careful consideration and conversations with church leaders, elected officials, civil rights activists, and many citizens of our congressional districts, we have decided not to attend or participate in the opening of the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum,” Lewis said in a statement.
In particular, Lewis pointed to the president’s “disparaging comments about women, the disabled, immigrants, and National Football League players.”
“The struggles represented in this museum exemplify the truth of what really happened in Mississippi,” he said. “After President Trump departs, we encourage all Mississippians and Americans to visit this historic civil rights museum.”
