Evening Book Club
December 3, 2018 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
West Liberty Public Library, 400 N Spencer St, West Liberty, IA 52776, USAMARCH, Book 1(Graphic Novel) by Jon Lewis, Andrew Aydin, and Illustrated by Nate Powell
Congressman John Lewis (GA-5) is an American icon, one of the key figures of the civil rights movement. His commitment to justice and nonviolence has taken him from an Alabama sharecropper's farm to the halls of Congress, from a segregated schoolroom to the 1963 March on Washington, and from receiving beatings from state troopers to receiving the Medal of Freedom from the first African-American president. March is a vivid first-hand account of John Lewis' lifelong struggle for civil and human rights, meditating in the modern age on the distance traveled since the days of Jim Crow and segregation. Rooted in Lewis' personal story, it also reflects on the highs and lows of the broader civil rights movement. Books are available at the front desk for checkout.
