영문 초록

The graphic novel trilogy March tells the story of United States Congressman John Lewis and his pivotal role in the civil rights movement in the 1960s. Book One depicts Congressman Lewis’ upbringing in Alabama, his desire to be a minister and his inspiration towards non-violent means of protest. Congressman Lewis is influenced by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and has the opportunity to meet him. In Book Two Congressman Lewis grows into prominence and is one of the speakers on the March on Washington, speaking before Dr. King’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech. Book Three chronicles the many at-tacks and arrests Lewis encounters, culminating in the March to Selma, Alabama, where the brutal attack on the marchers made national television news and helped change public opinion regarding the civil rights movement. All three volumes were co-written by Andrew Aydin with Nate Powell providing the art. March has won numerous awards, with Book Three winning the prestigious National Book Award, the first graphic novel to do so.
