520 "On the cold Saturday morning of January 16, 1965, a U.S.
Air Force KC-135 tanker carrying thirty-one thousand
gallons of jet fuel crashed into a congested African
American neighborhood in Wichita, Kansas. When the fire
and destruction finally subsided, forty-seven people--
mostly African American children--were dead or injured,
homes were completely destroyed and numerous families were
splintered. As shocking as it may sound, the event was
seemingly omitted from the historical record for nearly
fifty years. Now, historian D. W. Carter examines the
myths and realities of the crash while providing new
insights about the horrific four-minute flight that
forever changed the history of Kansas."--|cProvided by
