March: Book Three by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin
5.0

I finished this series the other day and am still processing it. I've read a fair bit about the Civil Rights Movement. I was lucky enough to take a Civil Rights class taught by one of the "Big Six" and founder of C.O.R.E., James Farmer, which was priceless.
But I've never read anything like these graphic novels by and about John Lewis. Somehow the medium of a graphic novel added a level of emotional connection that is hard to describe. These books are so accessible and leave such an incredible impact. I feel like I have an entirely new appreciation for those on the front lines of the movement and I am left awestruck by their profound bravery and dedication.
This is a must-read for every American.
