'March: Book One' Is Adult Book Club's February Pick

Black History Month is celebrated annually from Feb. 1 through March 1, and the Syracuse Public Library is getting in the spirit!

The adult book club will be reading March: Book One by John Lewis. A graphic novel, March is an autobiographical look at the civil rights movement, told through the perspective of civil rights leader and U.S. Congressman John Lewis. Book One shares Lewis's childhood and early civil rights involvement in Nashville, Tenn.

The graphic novel series features three entries; however, adults only have to read Book One for discussions.

Discussions will occur at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 15, via Zoom and at 1 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 17, in the downstairs meeting room. Copies of the graphic novel (including Book Two and Three) are available at the library. Patrons can also check out a digital copy on the Hoopla and Libby apps, using their library card.
