  • TULSA MASSACRE SURVIVORS APPEAR BEFORE CONGRESS: The last known survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre are appearing before members of the House Judiciary Committee roughly 100 years later to discuss the lasting effects of the act of racial violence that killed somewhere between 39 to 300 Black Americans in Oklahoma. They are joined by other human rights activists who are testifying before the Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties to consider reparations or other legal remedies for survivors or families of survivors.

    Message to White Conservatives: It's kind of hard for poor Black Americans to "pick themselves up by their bootstraps" when your actions (be it a century ago, a few decades ago, or even today) like burning down their churches and businesses keep them from achieving economic equality/stability.

      Let's hope these Conservatives have at least some empathy in them.

      @Ku Klux Klan You can't expect someone to create or obtain the tools necessary for survival if he doesn't have the resources around them to do so. If you were born poor, there's a high chance you'll stay poor.
      There were kids who didn't have access to a computer during the midst of the pandemic. Are you really going to tell them that the lack of access to or inability to get access to a computer or internet is an excuse for them not being able to get through that year of school?

    WHY IS JIM JORDAN ON THAT COMMITTEE. He is the last person to be an overseer of this he’s racist and a pure Trumpian his first words are already trying to shift the blame and give excuses of why or how this happened. In my opinion this will as usual all show no action. Theatrics

    I noticed out of over 6000plus views there are very few comments on this video. The truth speaks for itself and it hurts. Cuts like a sword!

    These people need to me made whole period! Not just a hearing, pat on the back and thanks for your testimony. This is part of the Black Holocaust in America. Pay these people what they are OWED-give them their reparations and let them and their descendents live out their lives in peace!

    This country will be punished by God for its past and present disrespect that has been done.
    Isaiah 47:6
    “I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and given them into thine hand: you didnt show them no mercy; upon the ancient have you very heavily laid your yoke.”
    “And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that you did not lay these things to your heart, neither did not remember the latter end of it.”
    Lady liberty time is written for judgment by God.
