If Trees Could Speak

This book is a fictional story about two hundred acres of land that was stolen from an African American family who obtained land thanks to the Homestead Act. In the 1800s, Veronica Williams' great-grandfather was deceived, and this is how this brave descendant regained what was rightfully hers. Her ways and means were out of the ordinary, but she did what she needed to do to triumph. Sadly, millions of African Americans who obtained land from their former slave masters or land that they purchased was stolen from them through racism, violence, trickery, or murder. This is the story of the Williams family.
