This series is beautifully written and illustrated. The amount of history and the amount of information you learn about the Civil Rights movements and all of its factions is tremendous and yet never overwhelming. It's emotional and heartbreaking and inspiring and hopeful and will also make you disappointed we haven't progressed near as much as we should have.
And the art just matches the tone so beautifully. It's in touch with reality without striking out for absolute realism. The stark black and white of the art just hits the reflective tone this book seems to be striking for. I just love it.
