A must read for every black person
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I thought the book was very powerful and in depth! I wanted the biggest version of the book! Nevertheless I found this book very in depth and informative! We must learn from our forefathers and understand or try to imagine what they went through! We can do this today now in 2024! We must unite and teach our children this rich history of us building and supporting each other as black peoples!

The sadness of the massacre
Format: Paperback
I am not sure how I came across this book but am glad I did. This is one reason why we should never try to erase our history whether good or bad. Sadly, I feel the hate still lingers amongst people but I will never forget when Dr Martin Luther King was assasinated. I was just 19 and my heart sank to lose such a good leader. This book opened my eyes to look and support our leaders whether white or black. Skin color does not define who we are

An Impressive detailed account for many to learn from
Format: Paperback
I haven’t finished with 2 chapters remaining but it’s a well thought out and vivid account of the horrific events of the Tulsa massacre. I was a novice on this event, having only known the high level details, and was given a more detailed lesson and edification of he horrific massacre of the Greenwood district of Tulsa OK. Well done Mr King!
