U.S. Marks 100th Anniversary of Tulsa Race Massacre, When White Mob Destroyed "Black Wall Street"

- Memorial Day marks the 100th anniversary of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre, one of the deadliest episodes of racial violence in U.S. history, when the thriving African American neighborhood of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma - known as "Black Wall Street" - was burned to the ground by a white mob. An estimated 300 African Americans were killed and over 1,000 injured. Whites in Tulsa actively suppressed the truth, and African Americans were intimidated into silence. But efforts to restore the horrific event to its rightful place in U.S. history are having an impact. Survivors testified last week before Congress, calling for reparations. President Biden is set to visit Tulsa on Tuesday. We speak with documentary filmmaker Stanley Nelson, whose new film premiering this weekend explores how Black residents sought out freedom in Oklahoma and built a thriving community in Greenwood, and how it was all destroyed over two days of horrific violence. Nelson notes many African Americans migrated westward after the Civil War "to start a new life" with dignity. "Greenwood was one of over 100 African American communities in the West," he says. "Greenwood was the biggest and the baddest of those communities."

This is what they don't want to teach in schools
they still don't anyway the educational , political , and social e structure can surpress black studies they do it when ever you see two are more Afro Americans gathered togather speaking about black studies the trouble begaines were the powers that be will say something like this you people are starting , are causing trouble, yet let the klan are some other group cather togather there will be nothing said with the eception of some political leader saying that they have the right to assimble peacefully.
The Shoeshiner “Diamond - Dick Roland” (not Rowland) and Sarah Page were actually dating and they got into a fight in the elevator. People heard her screaming in the elevator and they told police that he forced himself on her but didn’t say they were dating. Two days later police arrested Roland and he said that he stepped on her foot. Then both the Black and White Democratic newspapers ran stories to scare people. 10 months earlier both a black man and a white man were taken by force by mobs from that police station and hung in public. So the whole city was scared. Mobs showed up and the rest is history. If anyone is to blame at the time, it was the media. Both Newspapers held the same Democratic opinion ( Jim Crow laws ) and racist papers sold better.
Those who want to learn about anything, they can read & do their own research . Those who are too lazy to read historical records are gonna blame the school for their ignorance .
@Ryan Wiley The reason i mentioned the Democrats back in the 1920's is for the reason that the party still did not want to support black eqality and civil rights. The Republicans were the party for black people. The KKK was founded out of the Democrat white leadership that did not want Black Republicans voting. They would run all blacks from any white voting area. This is not questioned in history.

We don't feel like we are special we want to be treated as equals and our humanity be recognized like any other community. And just to clarify we still have unspeakable things being done to us every single day this hasn't just happened to our ancestors.
We have learned history that was written by the destroyers.
It's a universal phenomenon, it seems to be biologically driven. Fortunately, we can also read and observe for ourselves, and expand beyond the limitations of our educational establishments.

What is this phenomenon? Is it the phenomenon of jealous & envy? NOPE.
Black people have never massacred Caucasians & then destroyed their properties out of pure jealousy & envy. Each time we, Blacks, riot is because of major injustices - a police k!lling of a black person - but never because we were jealous.
Whenever black people pulled themselves up by their own bootstraps, people of European decent get heavy hearted.

Racism and it’s system is not because of some sort of superiority.
It’s a fearful reaction to greatness and being dominated by others.
They can’t compete and therefore they need a support system( based on violence) to keep everyone down and stay relevant in the world.
That’s the reason for the Holocaust. Not because they thought jewish whites were inferior, but because they controlled the finances and businesses as well.
The system of white supremacy is like a wheelchair. Without it they have nothing. That’s why they don’t seperate from the gun. It’s a big part of the wheelchair.

We learn about the Boston massacre in schools despite the fact that only 5 people were killed. I'm almost 30 years old and I only learned about this massacre for the first time a couple of years ago. God knows how many massacres were committed against Native Americans and blacks that I don't know about.
The natives were genocide to near extinction.
@@72marshflower15
Not just physical genocide, but also cultural genocide as well once every mile of land had been stolen outside of the reservations. Google the "kill the Indian, save the man" program. I'll tell you in the next paragraphs what that program looked like for my family.
My great-grandmother was born in 1910. As a young child, she and her siblings were forcibly taken out of their home by the US government and sent to live in one of many so-called Indian boarding schools. These were inhumane reeducation camps intended to hasten Native American assimilation into Western culture, by force.
The long hair of the boys was cut off and the children were beaten for speaking their own native languages or praying to anyone else but the Christian God. They were made to wear Anglo-style clothing. Hundreds or perhaps thousands of children died in these camps. My great-grandmother and her siblings didn't see their family again for years, well into adulthood.
As a result, my grandmother, mother, myself and my children were denied any kind of real connection to our Cherokee culture, language or heritage. The Cherokee language is disappearing quickly as elders pass away, the same as it is for many, many North American tribes.
@@warriorwaitress7690 Thank you for sharing your family's personal story. I really appreciate your candor. I grew up with my family's closest friends being from Pine Ridge, so they had their own family history with those shameful boarding schools. It's another topic that needs to be covered better in school. I think my US history classes mentioned it, but I might be combining memories.
I hadn't even heard about the Tulsa massacre until a few years ago and I'm in my mid-thirties now.
Go watch *Exterminate All the Brutes* it will blow your mind
@@warriorwaitress7690 I know the go to cliché is to point the finger at a particular race that appears to have caused all this, but what appears to be more important and closer to Source is that we’re dealing with a thought construct within western cultures that is bent on calamity, not any particular race itself.
Not unlike how Jews are always getting blamed for the bad things that Zionists are doing.
I point this out cause I’ve been subject to the same variety of abuse that you mentioned happened to your family, and I’m caucasian.
In fact, that what you discuss, has happened so many times in Europe, that’s it’s being exported to other societies and wiping them out.
I’m not trying to deflect responsibility of the device and mechanisms involved. It’s just that we’re clearly not defining them correctly, as a society, or we’d be more adept at countering them.
We are the ecosystems for ideas and concepts. I’m not the only one to like swimming in rivers or watching a sunset while enjoying a meal with friends &/or family..
You see, Corporations often refer to ideas and concepts as “creatures”. In y/our midst, we face off with one infamously referred to as, “The Beast”.

The people who thumb downed this video are still hating with their jealous & envious hearts; the same people who would tell you how good Christians they are.
Whenever, in the past, we, black people, had pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps, a lot of Caucasians hearts got heavy, & jealousy & envy started running through their veins.
& the Greenwood massacre was not the only jealous riot by people of European descent.

Oh no. That word is only reserved for one group..
They still get their guns and torches 😞
Where is the mass Graves of black ancestors after this tragedy. There are three living from this tragedy, one spoke in front of Congress they have the nerve to tell this 107-year-old woman that the statute of limitations was over. There is no statute of limitations on murder.

So sad, all because of jealousy and insecurities 😢
They still jealous. Some whites don't understand that we work hard and continue excelling because we have nothing to fall back on. It was like when I went to the USAF. Born and raised in Chicago, I knew that if I failed basic training I was going back. A lot of whites have their families to fall back on.

Utterly shocking. Even worse, the local press would not mention a word of it for 50 years.

Thanks to slave owners every black person has some white heritage in them. Patrick your logic does not hold watet.
Im making sure my kids know about all these history of the United States.
Being that the evils of mankind have been hidden in the history books alone thru deception is nefarious enough is an uncivil war crime of whoa's & wonder.However, never the less, It's great to know that other cultures that are also connected thru close,yet at times distant cousins of dna liniage,are also conscious of these atrocious acts against not just the Tusa & Rosewood communities, but all of Humanity abroad.Bcs at the end of the day,innate feardriven hate such as this, internationally affect's everyone on Planet Earth.And echoes an eternity, forever sending low level frequency of negative vibrations of an apathetic inhumane eternal message of despair thru the Cosmos universally speaking.

The Netflix series "Amend" had a good survey of this history.
@@Heidelmann
Thanks for the recommendation. I'm only a couple of minutes into the first episode, and I can already see what an important role the 14th Amendment is going to play in the premise of this series. So I paused and looked up the language of the 14th Amendment. I remember that it was about citizenship rights and ratified in the wake of the Civil War, but I needed a refresher. I couldn't help but notice this time, when I'd never noticed before, that there's a loophole for inmates in prison. Just like the 13th Amendment loophole, which abolished slavery EXCEPT "as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted".
There's always a damned loophole for the incarcerated, isn't there? I'm convinced that this is no accident, but an intentional mechanism to appease racist lawmakers who would've opposed these amendments without a wink and a nod type of compromise. The loophole means that all they had to do was criminalize certain things and...voila, black slaves are legal again. We saw it with the vagrancy laws of the Black Codes in the post-Civil War era and, perhaps the most glaring example still in existence today, the war on drugs. In other words, find a way to criminalize blackness and you can perpetuate legal slavery, just a new iteration of it.
The Irony is them trying to preach morals to the rest of the world. SMH.
this should be on tv every month in every country in the world so we could learn what ugly creatures we humans can become, so we never repeat same again to nobody
Agreed, but regrettably we do not learn anything from history and continue down destructive paths oblivious to bad experiences and driven by both greed and lizard brain intolerance of skin color.
'Never Forget..."
This is gut wrenching, and it is long over due.

Was the area not also bombed ? Not just a mob: state violence.
Yes *State Violence* agreed
....and the state remains unaccountable and reparation free
I appreciate Amy saying the things that need to be said firmly and without hesitation. She doesn’t mince words. Until this country acknowledges and pays the debt to Black People and Indigenous People, in addition to ending the systems that maintain racism, we will never move forward and realize what this country could be.
What was once stolen can’t be replaced. The actual reparations come when the systems is changed or destroyed.

So called Native Americans are more racists and former slavers like every other ethnic group who heavily enslaved Black Americans, owe us billions of dollars in 1866 treaty assets and already received reparations for the last 360 years. The Native Americans stabbed U.S. Freedmen in the back and owe Black AMERICANS apologies too. Five Dollar Indians, Siberian mongoloids, are under a Federal Doctrine of Trust, their treaties were already enforced unlike the treaties Black Americans are under.
They didn't help build and establish the country and need to worry about their epidemics and tribal chairmen embezzling their money. The Mongoloids who were never innocent and helped create a racist pecking order here are owed NOTHING and should no longer be held in high regard by Native Black Americans!

This should be in school curriculum, as should the true story of the "discovery of the Americas" in your schools. We teach it here in Canada, and our kids aren't learning to hate their country.

Economics, Economics, Economics: Somebody, whom we will never know, wanted that land. This was a well thought-out, planned takeover of land, and the dehumanization of a people. In Numbers 14 of the Bible, it says "The LORD is long-suffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity [wrongdoing/wickedness] of the fathers upon the sons to the third and fourth generation." The decedents of the ruthless culprits of the Tulsa Massacre have not been forgotten by the Lord God Almighty. I pray that the Lord has mercy on their souls.
Actually bone chilling. The way America expects us to keep quiet toward atrocious anti-Black acts. As well as to even have the audacity to not only be offended when we confront injustice but, as well as demand we ignore and forget historical/Present day events that directly impact American culture that is still very much so racist. I do very love the strength of our people with the fact that one thing we don’t do is keep quiet. I love the strength of my elders!

@@hisbeautifultruth5931 I see your point. Cancel culture has been around forever and has never needed legislation.
@@TheMargarita1948 Well put. CC has always been here, but is only an issue now that it affects a "particular" culture. Removal of statues, racists losing jobs, etc..
But as long as it was Black culture being canceled, no one was concerned.
That question should be one you should ask of Democrats. The school boards that decide on curriculum are extremely left wing.
I am 50 years old and this is the first time I’ve ever heard of this disgustingly horrific event. I can’t even imagine living through this but my heart just breaks. It is about time that this story was told. It’s horrible that it was never acknowledged and was kept out of our American history.I am soooooo glad these survivors were able to speak out. Hopefully the healing process can begin. God bless.
You used the word God.. what version did you mean the Christian and not the universal ? The one the Roman/Greeks invented? One book wisdom (KJV) ? There are 1k's of events like this and you don't have a clue. Saying ( "no fool like an old fool") or my people suffer from a lack of knowledge or Woodson's book The miseducation of the black man? Indoctrination vs education? Which did you mistake and for what? Ego? Just asking.
Somebody got to pay, we had to pull ourselves up by our boots just to get kick right back down, somebody got to pay!!!!
Agreed
Reparations is the answer.
Reparations is not the answer because there should not be a question about reparations. It should be automatic. I have no f'ing clue why reparations is even up for debate.
To what? Without power to understand truth? Pay with what? Give unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's . ?
On 05/29/2021 there were 100's Black militia members were extremely armed/organized marching w/ Black women, men, and children through Greenwood. There were sniper teams spotted in tall half built buildings by militia members and a couple tense scenes with police. Then they FINALLY honored the previously submitted petition to an open carry march. The ancestral vibrations were intoxicating 🤜🏽🤛🏽💯🪲🌕⚫
God damn.. even the military had got involved in sending a plane to burn them down.
Call it for what it is⁉️HOLOCAUST/ETHNIC! CLEANSING.
Right on American soil.
This is why tornadoes frequent that area. Evil will be held accountable
💧
35 City Blocks were Destroyed.....
They are restricting teaching historical events like this. Oddly, although I’m born and raised in another country - I still learned about the criminality brought upon to our black sisters and brothers. Thank you for this documentary. My job is to share this to my kids so that they are not left uneducated about important events like this.
Continue to read: 2k years of this across the world. Then read the medical differences of humans ( Africans) and Neanderthals ( Hybrids/ Caucasians). Then spread that knowledge and wisdom. Seek and ye shall find..more than you ever image.
They don’t teach you this in History Class.
You say goodbye when they're alive and can hear you. Funerals are superficial snd of the flesh.
THANK YOU
Greenwood would of probably been a better Atlanta before there was an Atlanta.
I want all these people from around the world to see what we could have been and still can today if they did this to us what is protecting your segregated way of living
Sad really like minded people like the ones who did this still exist they are just waiting for the right opportunity to do the same thing again
Yup
They tried to sweep it under the rug, but we need to educate our youth so we as black people don`t let our history be forgotten.
We Ain't B lack and never was. Human not Hybrids not Neanderthal cavemen. those are brainwashing terms you seeming don't 'stand under' Ethiopians are and were "white" as said in Greek and Roman lit, check a passport. Confused? or lied 2.. sorry you didn't know. terms like pale face speak with forked tongue and gringo loco. True and real American terms spoken in the pigeon language called eng- li-sh. Did you get that?
I'm 50 years old and I just learned that this massacre happened 2 years ago. I was "educated" in Texas.
Goober infestation in Texas
Produced by Russell Westbrook. Cool!
Thanks for the true history of USA. 👍👏
I live 45 miles from Tulsa ok. My grandma had a store there . My mother was 6 years on , I have a store now and Martin Luther King Day , my store was shot up . First black woman from my small town . Shot 4 times and no one offer to help me . I. Been tested so bad nothing have change
19 think a thumbs down is the best they can contribute .... disgusting.
History teaches us why those 19 are so disgusting .
But belivable .
Unbelievable cruel, unhuman to kill innocent people, and no justice? No closure for all the families! Breaks my heart 💔How does God feel about what happened n 1921.....not pleased, and if there's no justice, there will b justice whn God comes to judge us all!
This is “ who” Americans ( patriots) really are, then and now. They are so threatened by Black success.
Read Moorish origins of the Pale face that speaks with forked tongue. Hit translate and study what he calls Mexican history aka American History. Civilizations older than his Troglodyte Niger beginnings. Etymology and linguistics will seriously open the Seat of the Soul aka Pineal Gland.
Greenwood would of probably been the shining example of what other black city could of been
How did we go on? How do we go on? How will we go on?
Many have already questioned this spirit of "Endurance".
Even having questioned - "if roles were reversed, would they
have been able to survive" ?
We will go on because we will not forget !
Well ain't that America.
Reparations for African Americans period!!!!! Especially the Tulsa area
Reparations for Slavery starts with the British to set the legal precedent for more
Whomever. It needs to be done
@Aidan Rickord if everyone is given reparations it is not up to you how they spend there money first of all
the point (I’m trying to make) isn’t for the money to aid in surmounting the past that’s over it’s to compensate and help alleviate the now and at least give them an opportunity to build, buy, or blow there money! And as the furtherest extensions of our ancestors, the trauma inflicted by this state politic and its a Canadians I think it’s the LEAST they could do.
@Aidan Rickord everyone is not impoverished lol. And I wouldn’t expecta one time payment to uplift generational damage what exactly are you arguing annual reparations won’t help so don’t give them any money ????what’s writing with you?
Its funny how we keep hearing about last summer fire burning business looted,but 30 city blocks of black own business and homes was vandalized an burn to the ground
Wake up...all of America ( North, Central and South) Please open your eyes. Belief is not fact. Narrowed vision is brain destruction or distraction? Thinking yet?
This makes me sick! Absolutely disgusting
OMG _ I am so wounded by the things humans do! How easy to demolish livelihoods with utter impunity.
As we have just witnessed in Israel. We have to find a way to be compassionate.
And this dreadful wound has to be opened and aired - and somehow real healing sought.
THE OTHER PRESSING ISSUE, THAT THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY HAVE TO PUSH BACK ON ,IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE 1619 PROJECT ..BLACK HISTORY.... BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS....THEY ARE TRYING TO WIPE OUT BLACK HISTORY... MITCH AND HIS CREW
Amazing how one of the most dweeby creatures ever has so much juice.
I'm no fan of Mitch but wasn't that the democrats that were destroying statues & trying to erase history last year?
The Devil's Punchbowl, Natchez Ms. Look it up.
I am angry that I was NEVER TAUGHT THIS as part of HISTORY and that my COLLEGE HISTORY TEACHER told us that the reason for the Civil was was simply a states' rights issue. I knew by then something was wrong with this line of crap.
Don’t this remind you of what the Israel is doing to the Palestinians
I have heard there are survivors living to this day,but after 100 years is that possible?
One woman who is 107 was recently interviewed. Better find the video quickly...
There's NO WAY IN HELL a price tag can be put on the absolute unjust horrific lose of all those humanbeings, but I be dammed if it wouldn't be "atleast something that must happen". Every single humanbeing that has suffered, been tortured, murdered or any descendents from such atrocities must be given some kind of retribution "$$$" as to possibly give back so the youth of these families can flourish moving forward. Nothing can UNDO the wrongs, but we must start somewhere.😔
Never bury any seeds if you don’t wanna see them grow
Isn't an anniversary a celebration? Y'all will never change.
Ignorant observation
@@compassioncampaigner728 thank you for the compliment. You are very low vibrational.
No it is not. Look up "Pearl Harbor anniversary".
Anniversary: date an event took place in a previous year.
Anniversary: celebration of an event.
Like it or not just because you don't agree with something doesn't make it not be true.
@@karenmarie3568 Not necessarily in a previous year. You're almost there.
