That right there is why we need for the next generations, and the ones after that, and the ones after that, to be taught the truths.
The Tulsa Race Massacre was not "race riots." White men were deputized by the local constabulary. They looted buildings, destroyed houses, and murdered black people with the permission, blessing, encouragement, and authorization of the law.
The reason: the black people in the area were doing well. Prospering, profiting, becoming affluent.
