Can anyone believe we are almost half way through March already?! I'm still in January lol....its been a busy month but I've gotten a chance to slow down the last two days to spend some more time with #MarchBook1 and #JohnLewis! I was so excited to introduce some #comicbook style #graphicnovels into the rotation and I have not been disappointed with this book. The combination of John Lewis' voice with #AndrewAydin 's comic/graphic novel background and #NatePowell 's moving artwork create a poignant page turner that you will not be able to put down; As you all know, I'm a history gal, and they bring history to life. Not only have I gotten to into the #BnBbookclub read, but I've also gotten a chance to sort through more vintage fabrics and kits that would be perfect for our companion Quote Tote Bag Project! I will be wading through more fabric today and posting some great collage inspired fabric grab bags to inspire you for this project and probably quite a few future ones, so stay tuned and keep reading! ❤📚❤ #booksandbobbins #bookclubofchampions #bookclub #civilrights #blackhistory #civilrights #americanhistory #nonviolence #MartinLuthetKing #MartinLutherKingandtheMontgomeryStory #comicbooks #readsewlearn #letsread #letssew #letscraft #letsreadcomics !!!! https://www.instagram.com/p/CMYApTAnHu6/?igshid=fx8kt08bjvoa

Books four, five, and six for #blacklitchallenge! I’ve had the first two books of this trilogy on my shelves for too long without reading them, and without picking up the third. Finally I decided to go grab the third book at the library this weekend and then read all three of them yesterday. What powerful books! Like most Americans, I knew bits and pieces of this story, but certainly not all of it, and not strung together as a personal narrative like this. It is, of course, a massive story that is difficult to find a starting and ending place for, but ending this with the Voting Rights Act is clever and satisfying, especially as the book jumps back and forth from the Civil Rights movement to the inauguration of Barack Obama (and also Lewis’s status as a Congressional Representative.) . . Given the subject matter, these books are difficult to read at times, and there were a few places (particularly in the third book) where I had to put the book down and walk away for a while. But I think all these moments were handled with the right weight — conveying the seriousness of the violence activists faced without lingering too long. . . These are an amazing achievement and I hope they find a permanent place in the graphic novel canon alongside classics like Maus and Persepolis. . . Have you read this? What other graphic non-fiction would you recommend? . . #march #johnlewis #andrewaydin #natepowell #blackstorieshavepower #blackhistorymonth #civilrightsmovement #graphicnovels #americanhistory https://www.instagram.com/p/B8_w_5mAxEP/?igshid=yuvka8tniwsi

Happy 79th Birthday to U.S. Representative John Lewis, co-author (with Andrew Aydin) of the March Graphic Novels. The story tells of Lewis' struggles to achieve civil and human rights during the Jim Crow era. #JohnLewis #March #MarchGraphicNovel #AndrewAydin #NatePowell #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackHistory #BlackStudies #AfricanAmericanHistory #AfricanAmericanStudies #CivilRights #HumanRights #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #SiscosFavoriteComics https://www.instagram.com/p/BuJuZSwHtfh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jst3vizsm3bq

This was such a moving and educational read. I deliberately decided to pick it up during February for black history month. I learned so much and the trilogy slipcase set is absolutely beautiful. I highly, highly recommend that everyone buy and read this and find out more about the civil rights movement and about John Lewis. #March #MarchTrilogy #SlipcaseEdition #JohnLewis #AndrewAydin #NatePowell

And now leave me be as I dive into this sure to be classic. #justonewordbookphotochallenge #march #trilogy #johnlewis #andrewaydin #natepowell #graphicnovel #civilrights #civilrightsmovement #washington #washingtondc #politics
