27 VIEWS of GREENSBORO: The Gate City in Prose & Poetry is an anthology of the city once known for textile mills and as a train hub, now known for diversity, education, and sports. Twenty-seven journalists, novelists, poets, and essayists offer a broad and varied picture of life, present and past, in the Southern city—from the city’s brief stint as capital of the Confederacy to stories of its famous and less well-known civil rights protests, from reflections on Greensboro's overwhelming growth to a profile of the man who created Vicks VapoRub.

During the hot summer of 1906, anger simmered in Atlanta, a city that outwardly savored its reputation as the Gate City of the New South, a place where the races lived peacefully, if apart, and everyone focused more on prosperity than prejudice. But racial hatred came to the forefront during a heated political campaign, and the city's newspapers fanned its flames with sensational reports alleging assaults on white women by black men. The rage erupted in late September, and, during one of the most brutal race riots in the history of America, roving groups of whites attacked and killed at least twenty-five blacks. After four days of violence, black and white civic leaders came together in unprecedented meetings that can be viewed either as concerted public relations efforts to downplay the events or as setting the stage for Atlanta's civil rights leadership half a century later. Rage in the Gate City focuses on the events of August and September 1906, offering readers a tightly woven narrative account of those eventful days. Fast-paced and vividly detailed, it brings history to life. As June Dobbs Butts writes in her foreword, "For too long, this chapter of Atlanta's history was covered up, or was explained away. . . . Rebecca Burns casts the bright light of truth upon those events."

Footsteps tells a riveting real life story about growing up in public housing. Footsteps: Growing Up In Gate City chronicled the first 14 years of the author's life. Footsteps: Coming Out of Gate City is the second novel in the trilogy. It begins as Nick is promoted to ninth grade and attending Woodlawn High School. The book follows the brothers' footsteps into adulthood. What happens when tragedy falls at the doorstep of their inner city home? How will the brothers handle the shifting dynamics of their community? What will the newly found "Rap Culture" and national gangs add to their impoverished neighborhood? Poverty continues to lure the brothers choices. Tragedy and triumph race to the finish of each brothers' life. Buried and uncried tears stream as anger, rage, wrath, resentment, vengeance, unforgiving hearts, and self-discovery. Lack creates blind loyalties. The reader is left to ponder which is easier, Growing up in Gate City or Coming Out of Gate City.
