I first learned about John Lewis, not in school, but in his book [b:March: Book One|17346698|March Book One (March, #1)|John Lewis|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1360539808l/17346698._SX50_.jpg|24086771].
Ever since John Lewis has truly been a champion in my eyes and I felt so sad when he died in 2020.
I decided to read this for Black History Month when I saw it was available on overdrive.
I learned he preached at a young age to chickens (he talked about it in the book also) and that's what this feels like, being in church hearing a passionate speaker talking about hardships, progress, and love. John Lewis captures you with his words and truly practices what he preaches. Get in that good trouble.

Not only a hopeful message (of patience and love), but an excellent insider’s look at the Civil Rights Movement.
