Nonfiction at Night

Join us to discuss Black Moses: A Saga of Ambition and the Fight for a Black State by Caleb Gayle.

Decades before the Great Migration of the 20th century, African Americans sought freedom and new opportunities in the West. Gayle explores the life and work of Edward Preston McCabe, who dreamed of and worked to establish a state settled and operated by a black majority in Oklahoma Territory.

Copies of the book will be available at the Frankfort Library Circulation Desk one month before the meeting date. Ebook copies are available through Boundless with your Frankfort library card.
