For the fifth straight year, Representative John Lewis hosted the junior class at his Capitol Hill office.  As always, he spent more time with the scholars than was scheduled.  This time, a total of four hours.  Lewis talked principally about the Civil Rights Movement and his role in planning some of the monumental events, including the March on Washington.  In discussing the March, he focused his attention on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech, but noted that he was the youngest person to speak at the event, at barely older than the scholars themselves.  As in previous years, the Congressman hosted the scholars in his office in the Cannon Building, where the walls are covered with pictures, plaques and posters that commemorate some facet of his involvement in the Civil Rights Movement.  Given that this year’s class was doubled in size from previous classes, today’s visit was especially cozy.  Following the session, Lewis invited the scholars to walk over to the Capitol to take pictures.
