Based on true events. The Crow Code 1877 perfectly documents the overthrow of reconstruction and implementation of Jim Crow, seen through the eyes of Abbie and Mercy. Abbie is a newly freed citizen with plans to attend Fisk (College).Mercy is a anti-hero with broken faith in God, who can swing an axe. The descendants of Jim Crow seek compensation for damages from 88 years of sanctioned terrorism. Consider this the "black book of citizenship".(but also a story of stolen citizenship.) Every American should own this book. 1877 clearly highlights the contrast between people who were enslaved from different African Nations vs. American Citizens who were enslaved in their own country. The Crow Code 1877 is also the origin story of one of the greatest women written out of history. (Collector's Edition paperback includes photos and the Black Wealth Apparatus)
