The Burning

Set against the backdrop of June 1, 1921, The Burning recounts the devastating events of the Tulsa Race Riot, where a white mob systematically destroyed the thriving black community of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Dramatizing the lead-up to the destruction and the aftermath, this gripping narrative delves into the social currents of racism and hatred, while also highlighting the efforts of the Tulsa Race Riot Commission to acknowledge the tragedy and propose restitution for the victims and their descendants. With a blend of chilling detail and human emotion, the audiobook sheds light on a dark chapter in American history that remains relevant today.
