Summary
About the author
About the narrators

Tracing the history of African Americans in Tulsa's Greenwood district, this book chronicles the devastation that occurred in 1921 when a white mob attacked the Black community. News of what happened was largely suppressed, and no official investigation into the Tulsa Race Massacre occurred for seventy-five years. Sensitively introducing young audiences to this tragedy, Unspeakable concludes with a call for a better future. Please note that you may download an accompanying PDF that provides enhanced materials for this audiobook. To download the PDF please visit lernerbooks.com/unspeakable
