"Marching is something people do together when they want to resist injustice or when they notice the need for change." This straightforward introduction to why and how people participate in peaceful demonstrations talks in general about the topic while the illustrations feature specific causes, moments in history, and activists. Ink and watercolor vignettes on white pages are small but mighty, as people of all races and ages show up for causes from history (women's suffrage, civil rights, labor conditions) and the present (BLM, ACT UP, the climate strike). A final spread provides brief information about the twenty-five "movements, marches, & key figures" in the art.
