Tributes pour in for civil rights hero John Lewis
John Lewis, the civil rights warrior who marched with Martin Luther King Jr and was nearly killed in police beatings before serving for decades as a US congressman, died late Friday aged 80. The African-American icon spent his life getting into what he liked to call "good trouble" -- the confrontations necessary to improve American democracy by ending discrimination and racial injustice.
