Historic Joplin Historic Joplin A Book for These Turbulent Times Its been awhile but it seems only natural to recommend a good book to help us understand these turbulent times. If you have not read itWhiteMans Heaven The Lynching and Expulsion of Blacks in the Southern Ozarks 18941909 by Kimberly Harper explores the complex racial dynamics of the early twentieth century Ozarks. If you are like us you might have grown up in Southwest Missouri during a time when there were few if any people of color in your community and wondered why. Well this is why.
