Riot and Redemption
The Tulsa Riot of 1921 is not a likely subject for juvenile fiction. Rightly described as “the worst riot in American history,” it was an almost military-style attack by white Tulsans on the African American community of Greenwood.

Houston in Cite
Young, fascinating, ever changing. Moody, exuberant, slick, and sometimes a bit tawdry. It’s a description that might fit the latest pop star, but it also characterizes the city that Rice University calls home.
