Historia:

La estampilla muestra una fotografía de Lewis realizada por Marco Grob por encargo para la edición de la revista Time del 26 de agosto de 2013. El nombre de Lewis aparece en la parte inferior de la estampilla. Las palabras "USA" y "Forever" aparecen en la esquina superior izquierda de la estampilla. Derry Noyes, director artístico de USPS, diseñó la estampilla.

   

Dedicado a la igualdad y la justicia para todos los estadounidenses, Lewis pasó más de 30 años en el Congreso defendiendo firmemente y desarollando sobre los logros clave en materia de derechos civiles que ayudó a conseguir en la década de 1960. Lewis era un firme e inquebrantable creyente y defensor de las protestas no violentas. Galardonado con más de 50 títulos honoríficos, fue llamado "santo" por la revista Time y "la conciencia del Congreso" por sus compañeros.

   

Lewis fue el rostro del Movimiento Estudiantil de Nashville, presidente de la Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, uno de los Freedom Rider originales, y uno de los oradores principales en marzo de 1963 en Washington. Fue director ejecutivo de Voter Education Project; director asociado de ACTION, la agencia federal de voluntarios que supervisaba Peace Corps y VISTA; y miembro del Consejo Municipal de Atlanta. También fue el autor más vendido de varios libros, entre ellos la serie de cómics "Marzo" y la inspiradora autobiografía, "Caminando con el viento".

   

Elegido para representar a Georgia en la Cámara de Representantes de EE.UU. en 1986, Lewis consiguió el apoyo necesario para aprobar la Ley de Derechos Civiles de 1991, patrocinó la legislación que creó la Ruta Histórica Nacional de Selma a Montgomery de 54 millas de largo y trabajó durante más de una década para establecer el Museo Nacional de Historia y Cultura Afroamericanas en el National Mall de Washington, D.C. Fue galardonado con el Presidential Medal of Freedom, el más alto honor civil de la nación, por President Barack Obama.

   

A lo largo de su vida, Lewis se mantuvo firme en su compromiso con lo que le gustaba llamar "los buenos problemas", incluso frente al odio y la violencia.
