Ten communities throughout the state of Alabama are joining a nationwide protest effort on July 17 in response to recent ICE raids and health care cuts carried out by the Trump administration. The event has been dubbed the “Good Trouble Lives On” national day of action in honor of civil rights leader and Alabama native Congressman John Lewis,

Civil rights activist and Georgia Congressman John Lewis was known for saying he got into "good trouble" by using peaceful, non-violent action to challenge injustice. Now, in 1,600 cities and towns across the country, protesters are planning to make similar "good trouble" on July 17, the fifth anniversary of Lewis' death.

Hundreds of "Good Trouble Lives On" protests are planned to take place on the anniversary of the death of the late civil rights icon and congressman John Lewis.
