Eugene and Springfield make "good trouble" in honor of Rep. John Lewis
More than 100 community members gathered at Clear Lake Community Center to learn about and discuss local actions in the face of the Trump administration's "attack on human rights."
The Eugene-Springfield NAACP held an informational press conference and Q&A in the spirit of Lewis' "good trouble" ideology.
"Our civil rights are under attack," said Eugene-Springfield NAACP President Demond Hawkins, addressing the crowd. "It's not just my civil rights and your civil rights. It's not just my friends and my neighbors, it's your friends and your neighbors."
