Sherman, Texas — On Thursday, July 17, community members in Grayson County joined Americans at hundreds of events nationwide to honor the legacy of Congressman John Lewis and to fight back against the growing attacks on our civil and human rights.

The local rally in Sherman was part of Good Trouble Lives On — a nationwide day of peaceful, nonviolent action rooted in the legacy of the civil rights movement and inspired by John Lewis’ call to make “good trouble, necessary trouble.”

Over one hundred participants gathered to demand an end to the authoritarian attacks on our freedom to vote, protest, and organize — and to stand united against efforts to criminalize our communities, roll back our rights, and slash vital public programs.

Local organizers invited press to attend, capture, and uplift the voices of those taking peaceful action in defense of democracy.
