    "Black No More: Being an Account of the Strange and Wonderful Workings of Science in the Land of the Free, A.D. 1933-1940" by George S. Schuyler is a satirical novel published in 1931. When a Black scientist invents a procedure that transforms Black people into white people, America faces upheaval. The technology promises opportunity but threatens economic systems built on racial segregation. Through biting satire, Schuyler targets both white supremacist organizations and Black leadership while exploring race as obsession and commodity in early twentieth-century America.
