Donald Trump isn’t the only malignant bigot lashing out at John Lewis for speaking his truth. Fascist fact-free filmmaker and serial liar Dinesh (who is a felonious mess) D’Souza had to put his tarnished two cents into the Trump twitter travesty.
Here’s the trash talk from D’Souza:
Here’s the response from Joy-Ann:
D’ Souza, was born in 1961, the same year that John Lewis became a freedom rider:
In 1961, Lewis joined SNCC in the Freedom Rides. Riders traveled the South challenging segregation at interstate bus terminals. Lewis and others received death threats and were severely beaten by angry mobs. In 1963, when Chuck McDew stepped down as SNCC chairman, Lewis was quickly elected to take over. Lewis' experience at that point was already widely respected--he had been arrested 24 times as a result of his activism. He held the post of chairman until 1966.
In 1963, Lewis helped plan and took part in the March on Washington. At the age of 23, he was a keynote speaker at the historic event. In 1965, he led 525 marchers across the Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama. State troopers attacked the marchers in a violent incident that later became known as "Bloody Sunday." In 1981, Lewis was elected to his first official government office as an Atlanta City Council member. In 1986, he was elected to Congress, where he is currently serving his seventh term.
Student of history he clearly ain't.
My advice to Dinesh — Don’t mess with that Sistah — Mister.
