Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Beyond That Room by Susie Ruth Powell is a stirring historical novel that traces one Black family's multigenerational saga against the searing backdrop of the 1898 Wilmington Massacre in North Carolina-a dark chapter in American history that marked the only successful coup d'etat on U.S. soil.Set on the family's rural farm just outside the city, the novel follows their intimate triumphs and tragedies amid a larger storm of political upheaval, racial terror, and systemic injustice. As North Carolina's Democratic Party wages a ruthless white supremacy campaign to overthrow a biracial government, threats, intimidation, and electoral fraud culminate in a violent eruption that forever changes the landscape of Wilmington-and the lives of those who call it home.With lyrical precision and unflinching honesty, Powell explores the resilience of family in the face of unthinkable cruelty. Themes of identity, love, loss, generational trauma, and survival are woven throughout this emotionally rich narrative. As the family grapples with questions of belonging and the meaning of freedom, their story echoes far beyond the confines of their farm-and far beyond that room where safety once seemed possible.Written by acclaimed attorney and Emmy-award winning storyteller Susie Ruth Powell, known for her work on The Loving Story and The Rape of Recy Taylor, this novel is both a deeply personal tale and a powerful illumination of a pivotal moment in American history.
