Griggs's novel is set in the post-Reconstruction South and centers on the story of two childhood friends, Bernard Belgrave and Belton Piedmont, who grow up to become leaders in the African American community. As they navigate the racial tensions and injustices of the era, they become involved in a secret organization called Imperium in Imperio, which advocates for the rights and advancement of African Americans. The novel delves into themes of racial inequality, social justice, and the struggle for civil rights, offering a thought-provoking exploration of the challenges faced by African Americans in a society marked by prejudice and discrimination. Sutton E. Griggs, himself a Baptist minister, used his novel not only as a means of storytelling but also as a platform to address the pressing issues of racial injustice and inequality of his time. "Imperium in Imperio" stands as an important work of African American literature and a significant contribution to the discussion of race relations in America.
