Black Wall Street 1921: a podcast.

We are a little more than a year away from the 100th anniversary of what has been called "the worst incident of racial violence in American history." The Tulsa Race Massacre. In less than 24 hours in 1921, the Greenwood district of Tulsa, Oklahoma, a prosperous and predominantly African American community also known as Black Wall Streets, was set ablaze while potentially hundreds of its inhabitants were killed. Thousands more were left homeless. For the majority of the time that has passed since then, the incident remained intentionally burried under years of trauma, shame and pain in a collective effort by many to suppress the truth of this tragedy and an effort by others to avoid the suffering associated with it.

Within the last couple of decades tremendous strides have been made - not only to bring this event out of the shadows of history - but also to restore the comminity of Greenwood to a semblance of the grandness it once enjoyed and to uncover previously unknown events and circumstances surrounding the Tulsa Race Massacre.
