His last thought probably was: “I never thought MY blood would refresh the Tree of Liberty”
“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”

He died in accordance with his political beliefs.
How many people get to put that on their tombstones?
