Description
"An incredible resource. In my 13 years as an educator, it is rare to come across a graphic history that is so well researched and deeply engaging for students. This graphic history is a must read because it offers readers, particularly students, timeless lessons and hope for how to create a more inclusive and perfect union today."--Ben Williams, DC State Board Representative and DC Public Schools history teacher "The experiences of Americans during the Reconstruction era are richly drawn in this informative and colorful account."--New York Times Book Review "Engaging reading for all ages . . . . Recalling this earlier time of profound social division in America's history, Masur and Clarke's collaboration celebrates the men and women who battled the forces of white supremacy to gain their rightful place as citizen."--Kirkus Reviews
