krobcecil 's review for:

March: Book Two by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin
5.0

Gets a little more deep into the bureaucracy of revolution than the first, looking into the clockwork of legend. I especially loved the juxtaposition of Obama's triumphant inauguration with the horrific violence so many had to suffer from for him to get there.

Reading this a few weeks after Trump - the racist, the scam artist, the sexual predator - attacked John Lewis as all talk is a reminder not only that Lewis is an American hero, but also that Trump is an American villain. A simpleminded, frightened coward who has done nothing but stand in the way of progress while denouncing those like Lewis who are strong enough to sacrifice their safety for equality.
