My New Congressman

Among the most pleasant unexpected benefits of having moved to the heart of Atlanta is that I now have as my congressman an individual I have greatly admired for some time, Representative John Lewis.

I doubt there remain a great many Americans who feel genuine pride in the man or woman who represents them in the House of Representatives, but I can now count myself among them. It is high time that I get around to reading Congressman Lewis' much lauded biography, Walking with the Wind: A Memoir of the Movement, and explore the origins of this great man.
