One hundred years after the Tulsa Race Massacre, Across the Tracks
is a celebration and memorial of Greenwood, Oklahoma 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.
