I appreciated learning more about the Freedom Riders and the civil rights movement. Again the graphic novel format works well with this narrative. A huge element to the movement was getting the visuals out to the world. Forcing the nation and the world to see what was actually happening was critical for getting more people involved in making change happen.
This trilogy can help share history with a wide audience.

Absolutely enjoying this series. Getting to know all the other individuals who were just as instrumental to the movement as Dr. King and Rep. Lewis.

Took me forever to read (I know it's a graphic novel) but it was worth it in the end. This one was much more intense and I'm really excited to see how everything ends. Full trilogy review coming soon...

Continues the story of the Civil Rights movement and John Lewis’s role. Although most of what was covered was information I had heard through other sources, looking at it through John Lewis’s memories creates comprehensive and unique prism to view the struggle for equity.

As with the first part, I am amazed at what this man and the other leadership went through, and ashamed that I didn't know more about the Civil Rights Movement.
