Reviews
"Ambitious . . . By the end of Luckerson's outstanding book, the idea of building something new from the ashes of what has been destroyed becomes comprehensible, even hopeful." --The New York Times "Cinematic . . . Built from the Fire offers a case study of how present-day Greenwood, and dozens of other struggling Black communities, got here. Luckerson reserves his final chapters for green shoots of hope." --The Star Tribune "The scope, the elegance, and the power of Luckerson's tale is simply breathtaking and empowering." --Carol Anderson, author of White Rage " Built from the Fire demonstrates how wealth is stripped away from black families whether at the hands of lawless white citizens, law enforcement personnel, or elected officials. It is also the story of black hope and the belief in the possibility of a brighter tomorrow." --Dorothy A. Brown, author of The Whiteness of Wealth " Built from the Fire is a deeply researched chronicle of Tulsa's extraordinary African American community through decades of triumph and tragedy, heartbreak and determination. In telling the story of the life and times of the remarkable Goodwin clan, Victor Luckerson has provided us with a true American family saga." --Scott Ellsworth, author of The Ground Breaking: The Tulsa Race Massacre and An American City's Search for Justice "By burrowing deep into the stalwart Goodwin family--survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre--Victor Luckerson has produced a dynamic, and propulsive chronicle of that episode in American history. Given the tenor of our present times, this is truly a necessary book--and one that marks the exciting arrival of a new literary talent." --Wil Haygood, author of Colorization: One Hundred Years of Black Films in a White World "By dissecting the way we've all internalized the racial and economic structures that guide city-making (and city-destruction), Luckerson offers us hope that we can build communities that support us all." --Peter Moskowitz, author of How to Kill a City " Built from the Fire is a sensitively rendered account of a family and community that persists." --Tiya Miles, National Book Award-winning author of All That She Carried " This is a new addition to the canon of required readings on this nation's tortured racial history." --Jelani Cobb, author of The Substance of Hope "A vital book . . . An ambitious chronicle of a racially motivated atrocity that still resonates today . . . [Victor Luckerson] brings his considerable journalistic sensibilities to this sweeping and intimate portrait of racial violence, empowerment, and social action." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Luckerson fills every page with humanity distilled from his prodigious research." -- BookPage (starred review) "An immersive history . . . a comprehensive and impassioned portrait of a community fighting for its survival." -- Publishers Weekly, " Built from the Fire demonstrates how wealth is stripped away from black families whether at the hands of lawless white citizens, law enforcement personnel, or elected officials. It is also the story of black hope and the belief in the possibility of a brighter tomorrow." --Dorothy A. Brown, author of The Whiteness of Wealth " Built from the Fire is a deeply researched chronicle of Tulsa's extraordinary African American community through decades of triumph and tragedy, heartbreak and determination. But, more important, in telling the story of the life and times of the remarkable Goodwin clan, Victor Luckerson has provided us with a true American family saga." --Scott Ellsworth, author of The Ground Breaking: An American City and Its Search for Justice "By burrowing deep into the stalwart Goodwin family--survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre--Victor Luckerson has produced a dynamic, and propulsive, chronicle of that episode in American history. Given the tenor of our present times, this is truly a necessary book. And one that marks the exciting arrival of a new literary talent." --Wil Haygood, author of Colorization: One Hundred Years of Black Films in a White World "Victor Luckerson does something more important than just recounting the history of a city; he shows how narratives--in the media, in our communities, and in our minds--affect our perception of what a city can be and who cities are for. By dissecting the way we've all internalized the racial and economic structures that guide city-making (and city-destruction), Luckerson offers us hope that we can build communities that support us all." --P.E. Moskowitz, author of How to Kill a City "In a kaleidoscope of colorful details and moving moments, journalist Victor Luckerson profiles the people who built 'Black Wall Street' and then lost nearly all to a violent, racially motivated attack. Built from the Fire confronts the devastation of the Tulsa Race Massacre while tracing the recovery and repair effort that continues. . . . Luckerson has created his own compelling ledger in this sensitively rendered account of a family and community that persists." --Tiya Miles, National Book Award-winning author of All That She Carried " Built from the Fire tells a powerful story of African American resiliency and 'hopeful anger.' Of believing so much in the American dream and the promise of this nation despite slavery, despite the betrayal of Reconstruction, despite the terror that obliterated the achievements of multiple generations of black people . . . The scope, the elegance, and the power of Luckerson's tale is simply breathtaking and empowering." --Carol Anderson, author of White Rage "A vital book . . . An ambitious chronicle of a racially motivated atrocity that still resonates today . . . [Victor Luckerson] brings his considerable journalistic sensibilities to this sweeping and intimate portrait of racial violence, empowerment, and social action. . . ." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review), "By burrowing deep into the stalwart Goodwin family--survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre--Victor Luckerson has produced a dynamic and propulsive chronicle of that episode in American history.

By dissecting the way we've all internalized the racial and economic structures that guide city-making (and city-destruction), Luckerson offers us hope that we can build communities that support us all." --Peter Moskowitz, author of How to Kill a City "In the tradition of the great reporting of Isabel Wilkerson's The Warmth of Other Suns , Victor Luckerson describes in gripping detail the events surrounding the Tulsa Race Massacre in a way never before seen. He carefully chronicles a tale of tragedy and resilience; of lives destroyed and the miraculous will to rebuild. Built from the Fire demonstrates how wealth is stripped away from black families whether at the hands of lawless white citizens, law-enforcement personnel, or elected officials. It is also the story of black hope and the belief in the possibility of a brighter tomorrow." --Dorothy A. Brown, author of The Whiteness of Wealth "A vital book . . . An ambitious chronicle of a racially motivated atrocity that still resonates today . . . [Victor Luckerson] brings his considerable journalistic sensibilities to this sweeping and intimate portrait of racial violence, empowerment, and social action. . . . Luckerson adeptly describes the centurylong economic, political, and psychological consequences of the massacre, and he clearly demonstrates how those consequences inform contemporary debates in Tulsa . . . and the social responsibility of citizens and businesses, Black and White alike." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review), " Built from the Fire demonstrates how wealth is stripped away from black families whether at the hands of lawless white citizens, law enforcement personnel, or elected officials.

Synopsis
A multigenerational saga of a family and a community in Tulsa's Greenwood district, known as "Black Wall Street," that in one century survived the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, urban renewal, and gentrification "Ambitious . . . absorbing . . . By the end of Luckerson's outstanding book, the idea of building something new from the ashes of what has been destroyed becomes comprehensible, even hopeful."--Marcia Chatelain, The New York Times WINNER: The Dayton Literary Peace Prize; The MAAH Stone Book Award; The SABEW Best in Business Book Award; The Lillian Smith Book Award; The Oklahoma Historical Society's E. E. Dale Award FINALIST: The Hurston/Wright Legacy Award A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW AND WASHINGTON POST BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR When Ed Goodwin moved with his parents to the Greenwood neighborhood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, his family joined a community soon to become the center of black life in the West. But just a few years later, on May 31, 1921, the teenaged Ed hid in a bathtub as a white mob descended on his neighborhood, laying waste to thirty-five blocks and murdering as many as three hundred people in one of the worst acts of racist violence in U.S. history. The Goodwins and their neighbors soon rebuilt the district into "a Mecca," in Ed's words, where nightlife thrived and small businesses flourished. Ed bought a newspaper to chronicle Greenwood's resurgence and battles against white bigotry, and his son Jim, an attorney, embodied the family's hopes for the civil rights movement. But by the 1970s urban renewal policies had nearly emptied the neighborhood. Today the newspaper remains, and Ed's granddaughter Regina represents the neighborhood in the Oklahoma state legislature, working alongside a new generation of local activists to revive it once again. In Built from the Fire, journalist Victor Luckerson tells the true story behind a potent national symbol of success and solidarity and weaves an epic tale about a neighborhood that refused, more than once, to be erased.
