Aimed at a young audience, a clear, uncluttered picture-book text looks at marches and other protest activism through a positive filter. "Marching is something people do together when they want to resist injustice or when they notice the need for change." The ink and watercolor illustrations make good use of white space, and showcase diversity in both contemporary and historical examples, including voting rights, child labor, the environment, LGBTQ, disability, migrant agricultural workers, Black Lives Matter, and more. There are recognizable spot illustrations of Colin Kaepernick taking a knee, the Newsies Strike, and marchers on the Edmund Pettus Bridge. It ends with a message of strength in numbers and the willingness to act. A two-page endnote lists "Movements, Marches & Key Figures in the Art" with a sentence or two about each, and the relevant page number.
(Ages 4-8)

Sometimes people march

to resist injustice,

to stand in solidarity,

to inspire hope.

Throughout American history, one thing remains true: no
matter how or why people march, they are powerful because they march together.
