March

March is an acclaimed graphic memoir trilogy by civil rights leader John Lewis, co-written with Andrew Aydin and illustrated by Nate Powell. Through powerful black-and-white artwork, it chronicles Lewis’s youth, activism, and key moments in the Civil Rights Movement, offering teens a deeply human view of history. Parents and educators value its ability to spark discussion about nonviolent protest, justice, and citizenship. The books include intense scenes and mature themes, but as a set—ideally borrowed from the library or purchased as a trilogy—they offer rich, visual storytelling for U.S. history and civics.
