The Tulsa race massacre (also called the Tulsa race riot, the Greenwood Massacre, or the Black Wall Street Massacre) of 1921 took place on May 31 and June 1, 1921, when mobs of white residents attacked black residents and businesses of the Greenwood District in Tulsa, Oklahoma.


All based on a lie told by a white woman.

They were jealous our community was flourishing, and thriving, and they were a racist redneck lazy shits who couldn't take care of themselves


Violence worked for white people then didn't it? No one paid the price for the 300 lives murdered by racist whites.

The Rosewood massacre was a racially motivated massacre of black people and destruction of a black town that took place during the first week of January 1923 in rural Levy County, Florida. At least six black people and two white people were killed, though eyewitness accounts suggested a higher death toll of 27 to 150. The town of Rosewood was destroyed, Racial disturbances were common during the early 20th century in the United States, reflecting the nation's rapid social changes. Florida had an especially high number of lynchings of black males in the years before the massacre, including a well-publicized incident in December 1922.

Before the massacre, the town of Rosewood had been a quiet, primarily black, self-sufficient whistle stop on the Seaboard Air Line Railway. Trouble began when white men from several nearby towns lynched a black Rosewood resident because of unsupported accusations that a white woman in nearby Sumner had been assaulted

These facts aren't taught in american history books.
 
That's the best you got?

Violence works for whites, right?

I'm still working on the premise that not thinking works for TTQ.......but if you want to put forward the argument that the violence in Minneapolis justifies the violence in Tulsa, that's your problem......

deflection........do you have a comment about the topic?

Violence worked for whites when they violently murdered 300 Black americans, looted and burned down their town.

So forgive me if I dont give a fuck about Blacks looting today.

The argument is this country was built on violence. Why is it a problem when Blacks exercise their right to be violent?
