Learning about the Civil Rights Movement through Multi-Perspective Biographical YA Graphic Novels
Ewa McGrail; Alicja Rieger
Clearing House: A Journal of Educational Strategies, Issues and Ideas, v97 n4 p97-111 2024
No single story can represent fully and comprehensively a complex historical movement such as the Civil Rights fight for freedom and social justice. Learning about this movement through multi-perspective biographical young adult graphic novels cultivates in students a nuanced understanding of this historical struggle, making it more concrete and relatable for student readers. In this article, we describe how teachers can use graphic novels from diverse perspectives for teaching the Civil Rights Movement.
