In May 1922, a brutal murder in Kirven, Texas, sparked a horrific series of events, including the burning of three innocent black men. Monte Akers investigates the dark history surrounding this incident, highlighting the reign of terror that ensued as white men committed violence against the black community. Local authorities played a complicit role by concealing the identities of the actual murderers, allowing them to evade justice. The book uncovers this forgotten chapter of racial violence and injustice in America.
