lewis mean to you for me he is somebody who opened doors for me i realized that i would not be where i am i would not be able to attend the schools that i went to if it weren't for him he risked his life in the deep south where my family is from mississippi where my aunts and uncles would tell me stories about black people who were hung from trees that they saw and being chased by white people and being afraid to give i contact because they're worried about being killed themselves so while america is not perfect he has made it closer to a perfect union and for that i'm very grateful for stacey. the 2 of you thank you very much for that. ukraine is accusing russia backed separatists of breaching a ceasefire in the country's east the separatists of deny the accusations the truce agreed with the help of international moderator's was supposed to end 6 years of
