Thoughts:
I wasn’t quite sure how to rate this since this is about someone’s life and a very important part of United states history. I find this time period interesting because I live in Louisiana and there are still places in south Louisiana that you can tell where the water fountains were segregated.
I found the plot of this graphic novel very interesting. I know that these sit-ins where very important to the Civil Rights Movement. I like how this is going through Lewis’ life and how he became the advocate he is today.
I thought that the writing of this graphic novel was done well but I also feel like it was stilted at some points. I am not someone who reads graphic novels very often because I often feel like I don’t connect to the characters and the world as well as I do through novel formats.
I did enjoy this story and getting to see how Lewis started his journey to becoming the man he is today. I wish that I had connected to the story more but I feel like that is more of a me thing and not a book thing. I want to continue on with this story so that I can know what happens but I don’t know if I will because of the format.
