March: Book Three: 3

Welcome to the stunning conclusion of the award-winning and bestselling MARCH trilogy! Congressman John Lewis, an American icon and one of the key figures of the civil rights movement, joins cowriter Andrew Aydin and artist Nate Powell to bring the lessons of history to vivid life for a new generation. In the fall of 1963, the Civil Rights Movement had penetrated deep into the American consciousness, and as chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, John Lewis was at the forefront of the struggle. Now, with the MARCH trilogy, he and his collaborators bring these powerful stories to life, offering an urgent reminder of the power of collective action and the importance of standing up for what is right.

To carry out their nonviolent revolution, John Lewis and an army of young activists launched a series of innovative campaigns, including the Freedom Vote, Mississippi Freedom Summer, and an all-out battle for the soul of the Democratic Party waged live on national television. With these new struggles came new allies, new opponents, and an unpredictable new president who might be both at once. Even as 25-year-old John Lewis prepared to risk everything in a historic showdown high above the Alabama River, in a town called Selma, the stakes had never been higher. The world was watching, and the future of civil rights hung in the balance.
