I just read March: Volume 3 after my American Protest teacher recommended it to me, and words can't describe what I felt like while reading it. It's the story of congressman John Lewis. No matter what your political beliefs are, it's the type of thing I think everyone should read - it's an inside look at what it was like to be a civil rights activist during the 1960s, and specifically focuses on Selma. The artwork in the graphic novel is absolutely beautiful, and it has a few flashes to the "present" (2009) interwoven throughout, showing just how far he's come since his time as a chairman of the SNCC. Reading it made me want to go out and protest, and gave me a honest, powerful look at the great injustices of that time period.
I highly recommend it to everyone, especially those who have also seen Ava DuVernay's Selma.
