Fury, in her first long form graphic project.

It also adds an artist to share in the work with Powell, the surprising choice of new and much less experienced L. This book is focused largely on 1965-66, after the Voting Rights Act and Lewis’ ouster from SNCC in 1966, and lots of continuing political turmoil. This one, Run, Book One, is released after the passing of Lewis (R.I.P.!), though we are told that Lewis was part of the process almost to the very end so it is fair to say it is his story, based on his writing and his input as the work went forward, though it is also clear that the work is more deeply enhanced by research into many other texts regarding this period. A must-read graphic history, with a YA audience in mind, I guess, but it has proved as most good books to be a hit with all ages. That series was scripted by Lewis's communication director Aydin based on Lewis's own autobiographical writing and illustrated by Powell. The first volume of the sequel to the award-winning series March by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin and Nate Powell. Fury-making an astonishing graphic novel debut-to tell this often overlooked chapter of civil rights history. In Run: Book One, John Lewis and longtime collaborator Andrew Aydin reteam with Nate Powell-the award–winning illustrator of the March trilogy-and are joined by L.

But John Lewis knew that victories are just the beginning. And after coleading the march from Selma to Montgomery on what became known as “Bloody Sunday.” All too often, the depiction of history ends with a great victory. It was after helping organize the Mississippi Freedom Summer and the ensuing delegate challenge at the 1964 Democratic National Convention. It was after becoming chairman of SNCC (the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee) and being the youngest speaker at the March on Washington. But that was after more than five years as one of the preeminent figures of the movement, leading sit–in protests and fighting segregation on interstate busways as an original Freedom Rider. To John Lewis, the civil rights movement came to an end with the signing of the Voting Rights Act in 1965. The sequel to the #1 New York Times bestselling graphic novel series March-the continuation of the life story of John Lewis and the struggles seen across the United States after the Selma voting rights campaign. “In sharing my story, it is my hope that a new generation will be inspired by Run to actively participate in the democratic process and help build a more perfect Union here in America.” –Congressman John Lewis From the #1 bestselling, award–winning team behind March comes the first book in their new, groundbreaking graphic novel series, Run: Book One
