Abstract:
This paper examines the investigative nonfiction book Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI by David Grann, which explores a series of murders of vulnerable members of the Osage tribe that took place in northeastern Oklahoma between 1918 and 1931. Grann’s account reveals how white citizens, ranchers, and townsfolk conspired against their Native American neighbors in a scheme involving poisoning, arson, deception, and falsified death certificates. The direct motivation for these crimes was greed triggered by income from oil deposits discovered in the land where

Optimum growth regulator concentrations for shoot proliferation were 0.5 µm IBA, 6 µm BA, and 3 µm GA. A 48-hr pretreatment of liquid-modified MS medium (MMS) did not enhance shoot proliferation.
