This year’s passing of Congressman and civil rights leader John Lewis has helped bring renewed attention to systemic racism and voter suppression, as well as the principles and strategies of nonviolent protest. Lewis worked closely with writer Andrew Aydin and artist Nate Powell on March, his award-winning and history-making graphic novel trilogy about the movement he helped shape. Join Andrew and Nate in a live conversation with cartoonist and historian Joel Christian Gill and moderated by WBUR’s Quincy Walters as they discuss the current relevance of the themes explored in March, talk about the ways Lewis impacted them, and share memories of working with the icon who would become their friend.
