Representative John R. Lewis, the renowned congressman and civil rights icon from Georgia, was the keynote speaker for Lincoln University's 160th Commencement. His message of adding a fourth L, “love,” to Lincoln's “Learn. Liberate. Lead.” motto was heartfelt and inspiring to the graduates.
During his address, he encouraged students to follow in the footsteps of the Lincoln graduates who fought for civil rights and encouraged students to “get in good trouble” and to “march today so others can march tomorrow.”
