(Music) (Voice-over) John Lewis: My friends, let us not forget that we are involved in a serious social revolution.

We want our freedom,and we want it now.

(Voice-over) JL: When you see something that is not right or fair or just, you have to say something,you have to do something.

(Voice-over) JL: It doesn't matter whether you're Black or white, we're one people and one family.

(Cheers) (Voice-over) JL: One person with a dream,with a vision,can change things.

Bryan Stevenson: When people talk about you,what do you want them to say?

BS: Well, this is such a great honor for me to be in this room with you,to have this conversation.

I can't tell you what it means to me to have this opportunity.

You represent something so precious to so many of us, and I just wanted to start by thanking you for that, for your willingness to wrap your arms around people like me and to make me think that it's possible to do difficult things,important things.

And I just want to start by asking you to talk a little bit about that experience of growing up in rural Alabama in the Black Belt of America and how that cultivated this spirit that shaped your life and your vision.
