Former Congressman John Conyers Dead at 90

His son, John Conyers III confirmed the news, saying he died in his sleep on Sunday.

The deceased was elected into office in the '60s and continued to serve in his capacity for decades to come ... working tirelessly toward civil rights for African-Americans and minorities along the way, helping to boost voter registration in the community while also securing legal representation for countless people who were wrongly arrested.

Conyers was 90.

May his soul rest in peace.
