🚨 Entire Black towns were erased. Their history was drowned. But their stories refuse to stay submerged.
Beneath the surface of America’s lakes and reservoirs lie the remains of once-thriving Black communities—towns that were intentionally flooded, stolen through legal loopholes, and wiped from history books. In Tomorrow Drowned Yesterday, historian and researcher Ace Bailey uncovers the truth behind these lost communities, exposing the racial injustices that led to their disappearance.
From Oscarville, Georgia, submerged under Lake Lanier after racial violence forced Black families to flee, to Vanport, Oregon, where a flood destroyed the state’s largest Black community while officials turned a blind eye—this book brings long-buried stories back to the surface.
What You’ll Discover in This Book:✅ 20 Black towns that were erased from history—and the people who lived there.
✅ How land theft, eminent domain abuse, and infrastructure projects disproportionately targeted Black communities.
✅ The generational wealth stolen from Black families and how it impacts racial inequality today.
✅ Haunting remnants of these drowned towns—from sunken churches to underwater roads.
✅ How descendants are fighting for justice, recognition, and reparations.
🔎 Tomorrow Drowned Yesterday is not just history—it’s a call to remember, reclaim, and demand justice.
📖 If you’re passionate about untold Black history, racial justice, and exposing America’s hidden past, this book is a must-read.
