The Hindered Hand

Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, the novel explores themes of racial tension, social change, and historical context through the lens of a melodramatic love story and gripping events. It features a graphic portrayal of a lynching and a chilling plot involving biological warfare, reflecting the societal issues of the time. Written in response to a race-baiting narrative, it examines the struggles of African American veterans and the remnants of the Southern planter class, offering a rich contribution to African American literary studies.
