I went on to write my graduate thesis on the ["Montgomery Story"] comic book itself. It was the first long-form history that was ever written about it. And it's how I found out Martin Luther King actually helped edit "Martin Luther King and the Montgomery Story."

You cannot understand the politics of today without understanding the Civil Rights Movement and the role it played in our society.

The parts of the [Civil Right] Movement we recognize so well now were not born from a single decision, but were a complicated and messy evolution of ideas and spirits, coming together after a long, hard struggle to triumph in moments when the odds seemed the longest.

So March: Book One was the first book I ever wrote. And it was the most terrifying process I've ever been through.

People forget that many of the aspects of the Selma campaign were laid out in response to the church bombing in Birmingham.

In so many ways, forces unleashed in response to the Movement have come to dominate our politics, and technology is allowing the same injustices to be seen anew.
