Essay Topics

1.

Prior to the March series, John Lewis had already published two books about his life. What could be the added value of retelling Lewis’s story in a comic format?

2.

Lewis embraced the reputation of being a radical, taking pride in his refusal to compromise his principles. Does the narrative vindicate Lewis’s approach, or are there moments where a more moderate approach could have earned him greater success?

3.

Stokely Carmichael and some others regarded nonviolence as a tactic, to be used and abandoned according to its practicality, rather than as an intrinsically worthwhile approach. Is violence ever justified in pursuit of political change, or was Lewis correct in his absolute commitment to nonviolence whatever the cost?
