Across the Tracks: Remembering Greenwood, Black Wall Street, and the Tulsa Race Massacre by Alverne Ball

4.0

Although this graphic non-fiction book is extremely short (64 pages), it does its job well. An important piece of American history, the Tulsa Race Massacre has been hidden from most (white) Americans for decades. Ball and the illustrator, Robinson, show us how horrible these events were and how they destroyed not only the African-Americans who lived in Tulsa, but also much of the wealth of African-Americans around the nation.
