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!

A Must Read! I Cited it in my Book!
This book is a worthy read. It was good enough that I had to cite it in my book: The Real Wakandas of Africa: Dr. John Henrik Clarke vs. Herman Cain. The real value in this book is how it shaped the perspective of many black churches in America. In fact, it should be mandatory reading for every leader of a black church. The author maps a framework that was considered to be cutting edge for the churches of his day. This author was impacted by leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. In fact, he has another book on these leaders. Surely, this book was influenced by his perspective on these two great black men. You’ll find this work provides both a home for black Christian thought and a framework for the worship of christianity in the black community. However, you might not agree with every idea. As with any work that attempts to forge a new ideology, a certain dogma can come along with that ideology. Indeed, this is needed in many arenas that impact black people. Nevertheless, this book is a classic and an important read. If you wish to understand more about ways in which to improve the black community through the church, this book is fundamental. It is a must read!
