Elijah Cummings, Baltimore congressman and civil rights leader, dies at 68

Johns Hopkins University

In 2015, Elijah Cummings spoke to the graduating class of Johns Hopkins University. His remarks were a powerful reminder of every individual's responsibility to the world.
“I’ve often said that our children are the living messages we send to a future we will never see. You, you, and you are our messages.”

"When we're dancing with the angels, the question will be asked...what did we do to make sure we kept our democracy intact? Did we stand on the sidelines and say nothing?”
Congressman Elijah Cummings embodied what it means to be a public servant. If every Member of Congress did an ounce of what he did to protect and strengthen our democracy, America would be a much better place. May he Rest in Power.
