Eclectic Readers discussion

For February, we read the March Trilogy, which tells the story of the Civil Rights Movement from the perspective of Congressman John Lewis, a civil rights leader. It begins with his childhood and the beginning of his work with lunch counter sit-ins, and follows the movement through the 1963, while at the same time flashing forward occasionally to Obama's inauguration. As you read this fascinating graphic novel, was there anything that stood out or surprised you?
