Some secrets refuse to stay buried, even under 100 feet of water...
Lake Lanier is Georgia's crown jewel-a pristine recreational paradise that draws millions of visitors annually. But beneath its sparkling surface lies one of the most shameful chapters in American history: the deliberate drowning of Oscarville, a thriving African American community erased not once, but twice.
First by racial terror in 1912, then by government decree in the 1950s.
David G. Stone reveals the shocking true story of how an entire town-its homes, churches, businesses, and even its dead-vanished beneath the waters of America's most visited lake. Through survivor testimonies, declassified documents, and haunting discoveries made during drought years, Beneath the Surface exposes a conspiracy of silence that lasted nearly a century.
This is environmental racism at its most devastating-and the truth is finally surfacing.
Some communities are never truly forgotten. They're just waiting for the waters to recede.
