More about the book

Set against the backdrop of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre, the narrative explores the harrowing events that unfolded when a white mob violently attacked the prosperous Greenwood community, known as Black Wall Street. Over a span of seven hours, the mob killed more than three hundred African Americans and devastated the area, destroying homes and businesses across a 33-block radius. This fictionalized account delves into the historical context and personal stories surrounding one of the darkest chapters in America's racial history.
