Can justice prevail in the face of overwhelming racism? The election of 1869 was historic. For the first time, Black Texans went to the polls to vote. But many whites were unwilling to accept freedmen as social and political equals. They began plotting to reestablish white supremacy in the state by any means necessary. Aware of the looming threat, Samuel Dawson works to show that Blacks and whites can live together peacefully for the benefit of all. As his ideas are embraced by other landowners, Fort Bend County becomes the most prosperous in the state. The pursuit of happiness and the opportunities made possible by economic freedom becomes a magnet that draws people from across the South to Fort Bend County. The Pursuit of Happiness is a thought-provoking story of the battle between truth and ignorance.
