Once a beacon of racial harmony and shared power in the New South, the city was violently seized by white supremacists backed by the old slave-owning class. A “white Declaration of Independence” ignited chaos: the burning of The Daily Record, mass killings, families torn apart, and the forced resignation of Black and white officials at gunpoint. No one was ever held accountable — the truth buried under false headlines calling it a “race riot.” Decades later, descendants and historians fight to reclaim this forgotten history, knowing true healing can only begin when the full, ugly truth is finally faced.
