Adam Nossiter, The New York Times Book ReviewOn the morning of June 1, 1921, a white mob numbering in the thousands marched across the railroad tracks dividing black from white in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and obliterated a black community then celebrated as one of Americas most prosperous. 34 square blocks of Tulsas Greenwood community, known then as the Negro Wall Street of America, were reduced to smoldering rubble.And now, 80 years later, the death toll of what is known as the Tulsa Race Riot is more difficult to pinpoint. Conservative estimates put the number of dead at about 100 (75 of the victims are believed to have been black), but the actual number of casualties could be triple that. The Tulsa Race Riot Commission, formed two years ago to determine exactly what happened, has recommended that restitution to the historic Greenwood Community would be good public policy and do much to repair the emotional as well as physical scars of this most terrible incident in our shared past.With chilling details, humanity, and the narrative thrust of compelling fiction, The Burning will recreate the town of Greenwood at the height of its prosperity, explore the currents of hatred, racism, and mistrust between its black residents and neighboring Tulsas white population, narrate events leading up to and including Greenwoods annihilation, and document the subsequent silence that surrounded the tragedy....2382599The Burning209271https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-burning-9781466848849/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3852054/f6e871c0-f17d-47bd-b33c-8d5cb7280389.jpg?v=638385973283000000https://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3848055/f6e871c0-f17d-47bd-b33c-8d5cb7280389.jpg?v=638385967244770000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20139781466848849_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_A powerful book, a harrowing case study made all the more so by Madigans skillful, clear-eyed telling of it.
