Sales of the civil rights leader’s graphic novel “March” and his 2015 memoir “Walking With the Wind” skyrocketed following his feud with President-elect Donald Trump over the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend. After Lewis questioned the legitimacy of Trump’s victory, Trump tweeted that the 16-term Georgia representative “should spend more time on fixing and helping his district.”
Support for Lewis among Democrats sent sales of his most popular books soaring late Saturday and early Sunday. A collection of his “March” trilogy” ranked no. 1 on Amazon, and its individual volumes also charted high. “Walking with the Wind: A Memoir of the Movement” ranked number two.
There was probably 200 books for sale so they sold out, Very impressive.
I guess mr. Lewis must NOW agree trump is good for bussines.
I used to visit him on chol hamoed as a child.
Why is anyone giving credence to anything Lewis says ? Farrakhan,Sharpton ,Jackson ….and so on .
Trump’s racist rant against civil rights hero and activist is also WRONG about the condition of John Lewis’ congressional district, which is one of the most affluent districts in Georgia. Trump assumed Lewis’ district is run down and crime ridden because he is black. Racism 101.
