People protest against the Trump administration during a Good Trouble Lives On demonstration at Granada Square in Pensacola on July 17, 2025.

“Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and redeem the soul of America,” Lewis said in 2020 while commemorating the 1965 voting rights marches from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama.
