Acerca de este título
They called it the "Black Paradise" - a thriving Georgia community where former slaves had achieved the impossible. By 1912, Oscarville's residents owned more land, operated more successful businesses, and sent more children to college than most white communities in the South. Then, in a single night, it all vanished.

Hidden in the valleys of North Georgia, three families who had escaped slavery with nothing built something extraordinary. The Bagleys mastered scientific farming that revolutionized agriculture. The Stricklands created a construction empire that built communities across the region. The Browns developed innovations that influenced industry throughout the Southeast.

This is the story of children who learned to read in a church basement and grew up to become doctors and lawyers. Of farmers who transformed cotton - the crop that had enslaved them - into the foundation of unprecedented prosperity. Of a community that proved what was possible when people were truly free to pursue their dreams.

For nearly fifty years, Oscarville stood as living proof that the American promise could be fulfilled for all its citizens. Their success was so complete, so undeniable, that it had to be erased from history. Until now.

Based on years of meticulous research and told through intimate portraits of remarkable families, "Promised Land" reveals the extraordinary achievement that was too dangerous to remember - and too important to forget.

Discover the America that could have been, and the courage it took to build it.
