{"product_id":"save-it-for-later-1","title":"Save It for Later","description":"From Nate Powell, the National Book Award–winning artist of March, a  collection of graphic nonfiction essays about living in a new era of  necessary protest     In this anthology of seven comics essays,  author and graphic novelist Nate Powell addresses living in an era of  what he calls “necessary protest.” Save It for Later: Promises, Protest, and the Urgency of Protest is  Powell’s reflection on witnessing the collapse of discourse in real  time while drawing the award-winning trilogy March, written by  Congressman John Lewis and Andrew Aydin, this generation’s preeminent  historical account of nonviolent revolution in the civil rights  movement. Powell highlights both the danger of normalized paramilitary  presence symbols in consumer pop culture, and the roles we play  individually as we interact with our communities, families, and society  at large.   Each essay tracks Powell’s journey from the night of the  election—promising his four-year-old daughter that Trump will never win,  to the reality of the Republican presidency, protesting the  administration’s policies, and navigating the complications of teaching  his children how to raise their own voices in a world that is becoming  increasingly dangerous and more and more polarized. While six of the  seven essays are new, unpublished work, Powell has also included “About  Face,” a comics essay first published by Popula Online that swiftly went viral and inspired him to expand his work on Save It for Later. The  seventh and final essay will contextualize the myriad events of 2020  with the previous four years—from the COVID-19 pandemic to global  protests in the wake of George Floyd’s murder to the 2020 presidential  election itself—highlighting both the consistencies and inversions of  widely shared experiences and observations amidst a massive social  upheaval.   As Powell moves between subjective and objective  experiences raising his children—depicted in their childhood innocence  as imaginary anthropomorphic animals—he reveals the electrifying sense  of trust and connection with neighbors and strangers in protest. He also  explores how to equip young people with tools to best make their own noise as they grow up and help shape the direction and future of this country.","brand":"Abrams","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40696407556181,"sku":"9781419749124N","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/files\/8bb1ccff-4874-4d9f-99a3-a9cb9f2e527e.jpg?v=1695832863","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/save-it-for-later-1","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
