The Comic Book That Changed the World
Join Andrew Aydin,co-author of "March: Book One", for a talk on the comic book that inspired John Lewis to write "March". "Martin Luther King and the Montgomery Story" was published in December 1957 by the Fellowship of Reconciliation. This comic inspired Lewis and many other young activists to join the movement and use the principles of nonviolence to battle racial discrimination. The comic has a long history of inspiring activists and has been used in South Africa, Uruguay, Vietnam, Egypt and Latin America. This program is co-sponsored by Comic Fest and the Fellowship of Reconciliation.
