    Unfortunately there were so many more black Wall Street‘s lost throughout time that’s not being talked about.
  • We’re not taught about this in schools, nor the other race massacres in the US. The Tulsa survivors and descendants deserve EVERYTHING
  • Can we just say how amazing it is to have 107 year old walking, talking historian. Thank you so much
  • If this happened in another country, america would call it genocide. Lol

    I grew up in OKC, 1 hour from Tulsa. I NEVER learned anything about this until college. Glad it’s finally getting some attention

    That woman should be honored as a National Hero, for sharing not just a personal nightmare but a national tragedy, & for reminding us all we still have a long way to go.

    What pisses me off is the fact that this was omitted from the education system in California, where I was born and raised. Not one piece of this information was provided - it's sickening. By the way, I was born in 1963. It's unbelievable that we never heard of this.

    I didn’t learn of this in school in OK during the 70’s. I only found out about it years later during my years of genealogy research. I asked my parents and only my father told me the whole tragic story.

    I can only imagine how many mass graves there are in this country.
  • Rosewood 1923, Red Summer of 1919, Tulsa Black Wall Street in 1921, Wilmington in 1898. Up the Riots of Watts in 1965.

    WE know about it, THEY refuse to talk about it. They might not write about our history or acknowledge it but we pass it down by word of mouth because we need to know about it. We have to keep the convo going with our elders and our children in the same breath.
  • He called it an “Incident?” It is amazing on how careful they choose their words to replace “Genocide,Atrocity,Terrorism.”

    God Bless Ms. Fletcher at 107 years old, very inspirational, a strong survivor. She told the story right!
  • Tulsa is not the only place these masscres occured, Rosewood Fl, Wilmington NC...many other places.

    They did it in Wilmington, NC in 1898. They have parks and buildings on the campus bearing perpetrators and racist leadership from that time. Check it out.
