Killers of the Flower Moon

 
 
 

by David Grann

An unsettling story that uncovers a dark chapter in American history, revealing the murder of Osage Indians in the 1920s for their oil wealth. Not only were more than 30 Indians brutally murdered, but many more were deemed legally incompetent to manage their own wealth, which opened the door for exploitation. This book serves as a powerful reminder of the atrocities committed against marginalized communities throughout history, when one race, or even species, claims superiority over another.
