Book Description

Congressman John Lewis (GA-5) is an American icon, one of the key figures of the civil rights movement. His

commitment to justice and nonviolence has taken him from an Alabama sharecropper's farm to the halls of Congress, from

a segregated schoolroom to the March on Washington, and from receiving beatings from state troopers to receiving

the Medal of Freedom from the first African-American president. Now, to share his remarkable story with new

generations, Lewis presents March, a graphic novel trilogy, in collaboration with co-writer Andrew Aydin and New York

Times best-selling artist Nate Powell (winner of the Eisner Award and LA Times Book Prize finalist for Swallow Me

Whole). March is a vivid first-hand account of John Lewis' lifelong struggle for civil and human rights, meditating in the

modern age on the distance traveled since the days of Jim Crow and segregation. Rooted in Lewis' personal story, it also

reflects on the highs and lows of the broader civil rights movement. Book One spans John Lewis' youth in rural Alabama,

his life-changing meeting with Martin Luther King, Jr., the birth of the Nashville Student Movement, and their battle to

tear down segregation through nonviolent lunch counter sit-ins, building to a stunning climax on the steps of City Hall.

Many years ago, John Lewis and other student activists drew inspiration from the comic book "Martin Luther King

and the Montgomery Story." Now, his own comics bring those days to life for a new audience, testifying to a movement

whose echoes will be heard for generations.
