The second volume in the Oscarville Chronicles examines the catastrophic September 1912 racial expulsions in Forsyth County, Georgia. Following alleged crimes that sparked white vigilante mobs, night riders, and public lynchings, over 1,000 Black residents were violently driven from their homes, farms, and businesses.
Author David G. Stone reconstructs the harrowing weeks of terror, analyzing archival land records, court documents, and family accounts to show how white land speculators and local terror networks systematically expropriated hundreds of acres of prime Black-owned real estate. The Reckoning Comes places the 1912 Forsyth County expulsion alongside the broader patterns of racial terror that swept America, establishing how the violence foreshadowed the nationwide mob assaults of the 1919 Red Summer.
