The Day the Prairie Burned is a powerful historical fiction novel based on the forgotten events of July 13, 1929, when a white mob forced over 200 Black residents to flee North Platte, Nebraska. Through the eyes of Isaiah Dupree—a young writer piecing together the scattered ashes of a buried past—this gripping story chronicles a century-long struggle for truth, justice, and remembrance. Blending archival fiction with raw emotional realism, the novel follows survivors and their descendants as they confront systemic denial, uncover hidden evidence, and force a nation to finally reckon with what it tried to erase. From courtroom battles to midnight memorials, The Day the Prairie Burned is not just a story of what happened—it's a demand to never forget.
