Tales from the Greenwood District is a series of short fictional stories that adds color and dimension to Black Wall Street before the Tulsa Massacre. Each tale takes place right after World War I, when blacks were called to war only to return to a society where racism ruled. The racist former President Woodrow Wilson, who empowered white supremacists, just ended his term. At the same time, waves of the devastating Spanish Flu pandemic killed millions of people around the world. With death, danger and devastation around every turn, this society still thrived. Each tale shows depth to who we are as a people, our culture and our shared happiness and pain.


You'll read the tales of:


  • A nurse who avoids grieving a sudden loss in the midst of battling the deadly Spanish Flu...


  • A returning Army veteran who battles his inner demons while looking for purpose... yet his journey takes an unexpected turn...


  • A grandmother who takes her grandson on a walking tour of the Greenwood District, which reveals the founders' stories and also a secret about himself...


  • A white Tulsa resident wrestling with the mounting tensions of the angry mobs just one day before they embark on their historic killing spree...

About the Author
Waddell, Julian B.: - Julian B. Waddell is a thought leader in cyber security and a seasoned start-up strategist with a vast array of experience in both fields. That is what most people know about him. What you may not know is that he is a terrible singer and dancer, but that doesn't stop him from singing embarrassingly loud and at random while performing dance moves that look differently in his head than they do in real life. He is also a gifted storyteller with a passion for learning little known historical facts. In order to fulfill his passion for entrepreneurial endeavors, he stepped down as the chief information security officer at Oakwood University to focus on being a professor and start-up consultant for early-stage entrepreneurs. Well, that's partly true. The more accurate reason was that he hadn't had time to play video games for years because of his dedication to the job. The moment he realized that he had significantly improved his organization's security posture, he knew it was time to dust off the old PS4 and ride off into the sunset. Outside of all the awesome games he is currently playing, Julian is a great business wingman. Be it a grappling hook, a sound business plan, or X-ray vision, Julian works tirelessly to equip his clients with the tools they need to run successful businesses. What makes Julian so good at what he does? He is an empathic critical thinking strategist who has 23 combined years of experience in information security, information technology, and business strategy. He has served as one of the lead technical specialists of the Data at Rest Security Encryption initiative implemented by NASA (They are in charge of getting us to space, PEOPLE!) to increase information security for their users, and his team received national recognition for their efforts. There is a lot that can be said about Julian The Idea Wingman Waddell, but there's not enough time in the world. If you ever get an opportunity to meet this living legend in person, ask him to tell you about the epic project he is currently taking on, challenge him to a game of Brawlhalla, OR congratulate him on becoming a published author. (This book is his first.)
