Carry On by John Lewis with Andrew Young and Kabir Sehgal, Read by Don Cheadle
Final Thoughts from the Civil Rights Activist and Congressman
Every Monday through Friday, AudioFile’s editors recommend the best in audiobook listening. We keep our daily episodes short and sweet, with audiobook clips to give you a sample of our featured listens.
Short but powerful, Carry On collects the wisdom of the late Civil Rights activist and Congressman John Lewis. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss this collection that touches on empathy, friendship, courage, and of course, voting. Don Cheadle narrates with a warm, approachable voice and delivers Lewis’s observations with smooth, clear emphasis. Each chapter begins with a brief piece of instrumental music, reinforcing the idea that this is an audio that can be enjoyed slowly, chapter by chapter, or from beginning to end.
