How the history of American voting rights have shaped the way we
vote today, the perfect primer for future voters-now in
paperback!An updated edition of Tommy Jenkin's Drawing the Vote
aimed at educating young readers. Originally published in the
lead-up to the 2020 US presidential election, Drawing the Vote: A
Graphic Novel History for Future Voters looks at the history of
voting rights in the United States and how it has affected the way
we vote today. Author and educator Tommy Jenkins was inspired by
his students to trace this history from the earliest steps toward
democracy during the American Revolution, to the upheaval caused by
the Civil War, the fight for women's suffrage, the civil rights
movement, the election of an African American president, and
beyond. Along the way, Jenkins identifies events and trends that
led to the unprecedented results of the 2016 presidential election
that left many Americans wondering, "How did this happen?" At a
time when many citizens are experiencing apathy about voting and
skepticism concerning our bitterly divided political parties,
Drawing the Vote seeks to offer some explanation for how we got
here and how every American, young and old, can take action. The
expanded paperback edition features an additional 32 pages of
comics that cover the results of the 2020 presidential election and
the factors that shaped it, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the
January 6 insurrection.
