Built from the Fire by Victor Luckerson

4.0

“Built From The Fire” by Victor Luckerson brings the story of Greenwood, America’s Black Wall Street, from the literal ashes and sheds a powerful light on the shamefully hidden part of American history. Intensely researched and written through the lens of one family, the Goodwins, who survived it all. Luckerson does not hide the painful history of racism that affects Greenwood and African Americans to this day. His words are a call to action. Many thanks to #RandomHouse for inviting me to read this book in advance of publication. #netgalley #builtfromthefire
