Summary:
"In
Across
the
Tracks
:
Remembering
Greenwood
,
Black
Wall
Street
, and the
Tulsa
Race
Massacre
, author Alverne Ball and illustrator Stacey Robinson have crafted a love letter to
Greenwood
, Oklahoma. Also known as
Black
Wall
Street
,
Greenwood
was a community whose importance is often overshadowed by the atrocious
massacre
that took place there in 1921.
Across
the
Tracks
introduces the reader to the businesses and townsfolk who flourished in this unprecedented time of prosperity for
Black
Americans. We learn about
Greenwood
and why it is essential to remember the great achievements of the community as well as the tragedy which nearly erased it. However, Ball is careful to recount the eventual recovery of
Greenwood
. With additional supplementary materials including a detailed preface, timeline, and historical essay,
Across
the
Tracks
offers a thorough examination of the rise, fall, and rebirth of
Black
Wall
Street
