A really in-depth history of the Tulsa Race Massacre. The audiobook was super engaging and I learned a lot. Also had quite a bit of indigenous history that I did not expect, but enjoyed learning about.

Great explanation of the evolution of the slave patrols during the 1800s to the police in the 20th century. Colbert did a fantastic job explaining the history of Oklahoma that allowed for the Tulsa Race Massacre to occur.
