Decades of social progress are threatened by a retaliatory wave of white supremacy, and Lewis's nonviolent
methods are causing the movement to challenge and maybe even abandon him in favor of direct action. Fury and
Powell's black-and-white artwork captures the frustrations of the long road to justice, as well as the power of a
strong moral stance.
