A worthy conclusion to an excellent trilogy.  This third volume focuses on Selma and the struggle for voting rights, and delves into the complexities of the relationships between different individuals and groups within the civil rights movement.  This is far from my first book on this topic, but I still learned a lot.  5 stars for all three installments - highly recommend.

Again, hard to review individually when I read all three together, but this one is probably my favorite. I can definitely see how it won a National Book Award. Of course this was the culmination of all three books and the march from Selma to Washington, but there were just some parts that hit extra hard emotionally and mentally that I loved.

anniefwrites's review against another edition

dark informative inspiring reflective tense medium-paced

Another informative, moving graphic memoir of John Lewis’s life. I especially appreciated how he and the other authors lifted up the stories of women in the movement in all three books because they are so often ignored. The imagery is not for the faint of heart, but it is really the next best thing for a generation who didn’t grow up watching the movement on television or participating in it directly.
