Hear from author Victor Luckerson about his new nonfiction book, Built From the Fire (Random House, May 2023), which dives deep into the causes and repercussions of the Tulsa Greenwood District race massacre, one of the worst acts of racial violence in United States history. The book also celebrates the tenacity and resilience of Greenwood's residents, who survived racial terror, urban renewal, and gentrification over the course of a century. Spanning 118 years of Greenwood history as it follows several families who survived the massacre, Built From the Fire is a blend of boots-on-the-ground journalism, academic research, and literary narrative.
