I had to look it up so I will share what I learned.

"March" is in reference to Martin Luther King. John Lewis was a participant though the book is listed as Fiction.

From Amazon:
"March is a vivid first-hand account of John Lewis' lifelong struggle for civil and human rights, meditating in the modern age on the distance traveled since the days of Jim Crow and segregation. Rooted in Lewis' personal story, it also reflects on the highs and lows of the broader civil rights movement."

Most amazing, it's a graphic novel! I looked at some of the pages on Amazon and it is gorgeous.

I do see this book in my future. Thank you so much for telling us about it.
