Discription

Shrouded in mystery, and set in Depression-era Arkansas, Circle of Stone takes readers on a journey from powerlessness to power as a group of Blacks unite to overcome the brutality forced upon them by Southern whites. Determined to fight back against racial oppression, the Blacks of “Colored Town” form a secret society known as “The Circle”, where they devise clever tactics and quietly begin to turn the tables on their abusers. Interweaved with entertaining tales of “town people”, Circle of Stone is a testament to the strength of unity and educated activism. It is also the first book of this magnitude to be published, one in which Black’s strategically and collectively win.
