Through a combination of historical research, personal narrative, and stunning photography, Rhee shows how the traces of this history are still visible in the present day, and how they continue to shape the lives of African Americans.

Rhee begins her book by exploring the ways in which the land itself has been used as a weapon of oppression against African Americans. She describes how slaves were forced to work on plantations that were designed to maximize their output, and how they were often subjected to violence and abuse.

Rhee also examines the ways in which the American landscape has been used to perpetuate the myth of white supremacy. She describes how white landowners often used the land to create a sense of separation between themselves and their black neighbors, and how they used violence to enforce this separation.

Rhee's book is not just a history of oppression, however. It is also a story of resistance and resilience. Rhee shows how African Americans have fought for their rights and how they have created their own communities and cultures.
