Answer:
The Specific article was not mentioned in the question. Basing my answers on the New York Times Article: John Lewis, Towering Figure of Civil Rights Era, Dies at 80.
1. Good trouble meant being punished for fighting for a good course.
2. An example of good trouble was when John Lewis and some other protesters were severely beaten after they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge at Selma Alaska on March 7, 1965. They were protesting to be granted their voting rights.
Explanation:
John Lewis was a popular activist who zealously protested the several injustices the blacks were subjected to in the twentieth century and down into the time when he died this year 2020, of Pancreatic cancer. He was involved in the Freedom Rides of the 1960s where blacks were not allowed to travel in the same vehicles as the whites. On many of these occasions, he was beaten along with other protesters.
Lewis encouraged young ones to get into good trouble that would make way for future positive results. According to the article, he fought a holy crusade. In a tweet in 2018, he wrote the words below:
“Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.”
