Welcome to the stunning conclusion of the award-winning and best-selling MARCH trilogy. Congressman John Lewis, an American icon and one of the key figures of the civil rights movement, joins co-writer Andrew Aydin and artist Nate Powell to bring the lessons of history to vivid life for a new generation, urgently relevant for today's world.
By the fall of 1963, the Civil Rights Movement has penetrated deep into the American consciousness, and as chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, John Lewis is guiding the tip of the spear. Through relentless direct action, SNC continues to force the nation to confront its own blatant injustice, but for every step forward, the danger grows more intense: Jim Crow strikes back through legal tricks, intimidation, violence, and death. The only hope for lasting change is to give voice to the millions of Americans silenced by voter suppression: One Man, One Vote. To carry out their nonviolent revolution, Lewis and an army of young activists launch a series of innovative campaigns, including the Freedom Vote, Mississippi Freedom Summer, and an all-out battle for the soul of the Democratic Party waged live on national television. With these new struggles come new allies, new opponents, and an unpredictable new president who might be both at once.

I have a difficult time explaining how much I love this series
Derived From Web , May 16, 2022
It is extremely eye-opening. I found the pages, displaying the scenes at the Edmund Pettus Bridge very difficult to read. Trying to understand what happened to the young men and women on Bloody Sunday brought tears to my eyes. I hope that teachers use this series as a tool to show this important era of American history to their students.

Everyone needs these books
Derived From Web , May 16, 2022
I bought these for my grandchildren to learn the history of civil rights. I grew up in Al Durning that time frame and it was important to me that they understand all that happened especially more than they can get in school. They loved the books and plan to read them again. We have these to pass along to each generation. For younger children it is important to understand the struggles and what we have done as whites and continue to do to people who don 't look like us. John Lewis, thank you!

Excellent reminder of a turbulent time
Derived From Web , May 16, 2022
I have admired John Lewis for a long time, but didn 't know a lot of the details of his life, nor of the civil rights movement. While this is not a detailed and scholarly history but will give the reader a very clear idea of what the different protesters had to endure and how the original groups worked with each other. I think I sometimes translate the 60s into a few put images and a full view ''. David's graphic novels are an excellent corrective. This would be even more useful for people younger than I am, who can hardly remember that era.

The Series Offers Great Insight to Young People with Widely Varying Reading Skills
Derived From Web , May 16, 2022
I bought this series for my niece, who starts her first year as an English teacher in Southern Illinois because she is building a library in her classroom. She says that the format of writing and art offers great insight to young people with widely varying reading skills and social backgrounds. Probably more importantly, it provides them with a historical perspective to which they might not respond at all if it was presented in another format or medium.

Fantastic Finish and Thank You
Derived From Web , May 16, 2022
The book is the biggest of the three and quality and content does not disappoint in anyway. Aydin and Lewis have done a great service by bringing this project to life. Today, the younger generation has little knowledge of what people went through and the cruel and cruel treatments that these people were subjected to daily - this will be a great addition in bridging this gap. I have appreciated a first hand account in a format that depicts the treatments in a graphical manner, which tugs at your heart strings. Gentlemen, well done!

Fantastic
Derived From Web , Dec 20, 2020
What a great way to teach children about his legacy of faith, character, bravery and sacrifice for the country he loved. To show that sometimes means loving your country, you have to make some good trouble. To teach that even those who hate you, who would kill you, can turn things around. This project was a bold and creative idea to tell the story of bold people.

Everyone should read
Derived From Web , Mar 6, 2018
I can 't say anything different than for book two. This continues the powerful journey and the amazing willdullnez for freedom. A great lesson to remember about a pivotal time in American history. The bigotry, racism, and hatred that has been endured is a depicable mark on this country. What these people have endured to be treated with human respect and decency is inspiring. This is a book that should be read by every middle school student and discussed and revisited often. The artwork is dark because it indicates the great times that were endured and felt. It is a very easy reading style that lets the art tell the story with a well selected wording to bridge the details.

peace through nonviolence
Derived From Web , Jan 11, 2018
I have read American history books. John Lewis'history is a powerful message to all people of all nations that nonviolence can change the state, the country, and the world. It will not be over night, but it will be. So, thanks to all those who have marched before us, even if I did not know all those who did, I know a lot of them through this awesomely fantastic book. I am proud to be a white American and feel love for these fantastic people who not only marched, but also wrote these three books. One person, one vote
