Antebellum, by R. Kayeen Thomas

Antebellum, by R Kayeen Thomas, 480 pages

This is a story of a popular modern-day rapper who gets shot, and wakes up to find himself in antebellum America, where he is taken for a slave, brutalized, and eventually inspires a bloody revolt on the plantation and realizes how reprehensible his attitude was before he was shot.  Fans of urban fiction will probably like this. Those who bristle at speculative historical fiction probably won't.
