Additional Details

first and only edition. An early and very scarce publication from the NAACP addressing the issue of voter registration. The comic-book format was obviously aimed at people with only basic reading skills. Discusses the neglect of African Americans neighborhoods and what the average person can do to change things, voter registration etc. "Voting makes it possible for you to help choose the local, state and federal officials who govern you." Because of the poor quality paper, not many copies of this comic book have survived.
