Historical Fiction

The book I had read was Tulsa Buring by Anna Myers.

  • This book took place in 1921
  • they did not have slaves during that time
  • the jobs they had were police men who were white and i believe black too
  • When Tulsa burned to the ground over 1,000 African Americans lost there homes.
  • At that time there were farmers who were poor
