Black Wall Street Tulsa, OK 1921 Pt 1
The point of uploading this to spread this information across US, but also the entire globe for the world to recognize one of the greatest tragedies that has ever taken place in this country.
88 Years Since The Destruction and Massacre of Greewood, Tulsa AKA Black Wall Street
The date was June 1, 1921 when "BLACK WALLSTREET", the name fittingly given to one of the most affluent all-BLACK communities in America , was bombed from the air and burned to the ground by mobs of envious whites. In a period spanning fewer than 12 hours, a once thriving Black business district in northern Tulsa lay smoldering--a model community destroyed and a major African-American economic movement resoundingly defused.
The night's carnage left some 3,000 African Americans dead and over 600 successful businesses lost. Among these were 21 churches, 21 restaurants, 30 grocery stores and two movie theaters, plus a hospital, a bank, a post office, libraries, schools, law offices, a half dozen private airplanes and even a bus system. As could have been expected, the impetus behind it all was the infamous Ku Klux Klan, working in consort with ranking city officials and many other sympathizers.
.. The best description of BLACK WALLSTREET, or little Africa as it was also known, would be to compare it to a mini-Berverly Hills. It was the golden door of the BLACK community during the early 1900s, and it proved that African Americans could create a successful infrastructure. That's what BLACK WALLSTREET was all about.
The dollar circulated 36 to 100 times, sometimes taking a year for currency to leave the community. Now a dollar leaves the BLACK community in 15-minutes. As far as resources, there were Ph.D.'s residing in little Africa , BLACK attorneys and doctors. One doctor was Dr. Berry who owned the bus system. His average income was $500 a day, a hefty pocket change in 1910.
It was a time when the entire state of Oklahoma had only two Airports, yet six BLACKS owned their own planes. It was a very fascinating community. The mainstay of the community was to educate every child. Nepotism was the one word they believed in. and that's what we need to get back to.
The main thoroughfare was Greenwood Avenue , and it was intersected by Archer and Pine Streets. From the first letters in each of those three names you get G.A.P. and that's where the renowned R and B music group the GAP Band got its name. They're from Tulsa .
BLACK WALLSTREET was a prime example of the typical, BLACK community in America that did businesses, but it was in an unusual location. You see, at the time, Oklahoma was set aside to be a BLACK and Indian state. There were over 28 BLACK townships there. One third of the people who traveled in the terrifying "Trail of Tears" along side the Indians between 1830 and 1842 were BLACK people.
The citizens of this proposed Indian and BLACK state chose a BLACK governor, a treasurer from Kansas named McDade. But the Ku Klux Klan said that if he assumed office that they would kill him within 48 hours. A lot of BLACKS owned farmland, and many of them had gone into the oil business. The community was so tight and wealthy because they traded dollars hand-to-hand, and because they were dependent upon one another as a result of the Jim Crow Laws.
It was not unusual that if a resident's home accidentally burned down, it could be rebuilt within a few weeks by neighbors. This was the type of scenario that was going on day-to-day on BLACK WALLSTREET. When BLACKs intermarried into the Indian culture, some of them received their promised '40 acres and a mule' and with that came whatever oil was later found on the properties.
On BLACK WALLSTREET, a lot of global business was conducted, the community flourished from the early 1900s until June 1, 1921. That's when the largest massacre of nonmilitary Americans in the history of this country took place, and it was lead by the KU KLUX KLAN. Imagine walking out of your front door and seeing 1,500 homes being burned. It must have been amazing.

IT HAD EVERYTHING TO DO WITH THEIR FEMALES. THIS SORT OF THING ALWAYS HAPPENED TO BLACK SUCCESSFUL TOWNS AFTER WHITE WOMEN HOLLERED RAPE, ON MANY SUCCESSFUL BLACK TOWNS AND POPULATIONS. ROSEWOOD ANOTHER EXAMPLE, AND MANY OTHERS.
Tyrants will always find a pretext for their tyranny!!! Caucasians are a lawless ppl. Israelites were attacked while they slept. After being murdered & massacred by those savage brute Neanderthal cave beast the Israelites were the ones treated like criminals. That wasn't a race riot that was a massacre…felony murder with depraved indifference of minds with a total disregard for human life. This is the 1st 9/11 in U.S. history which was committed against Israelites but the Caucasians don't want to talk about this and it wasn't that long ago. *Three Holy Children 9; II Maccabees 1:28; Psalm 83:1-8; Sirach 12:10; 2 Thess. 1:6
The white man is the dumbest, how do you bring millions of slaves here, and then form groups to attempt to kill all the blacks off…. They were and still are scared blacks will take over,.. Just wait.. The reign shall end, maybe not soon, but it will end…
Both Whites and Blacks need to understand what this slavery thing has done to all of us? Watch the videos of Dr. Joy DeGruy Leary, her videos are here on youtube and she breaks it down how both Blacks and Whites did not get out of slavery without some major emotional scarring. Dr. Joy breaks all down for us all and after seeing her videos I was not the same.
I'm just amazed that this doesn't have more views! I felt every emotion you could possibly feel watching this.
Confused, Aware, hurt, sad, angered, betrayed, the list goes on and on!
I can't help but to think of Baltimore, ferguson etc when watching this. Nothing has changed— the same thousand upon thousand of terrorist who committed this heinous crime had thousands upon thousands of children who would grow up to commit the same acts in other ways… Only for them to have children and do the same thing over and over… Just under a different guise. Surely we've made great progress but a lot of us have grandparents and great grandparents who are still alive that were affected by this… But all we're told to do is, "Get over it!" Smh
This makes me so fucking mad. Like to the point where I would straight up skin a KKK member alive if I saw one right now. How can I not have white guilt. This shit was only 90 years ago!
as the ol' sayin' goes u' will reap what u' sewn…they always squawkin' bout foreign terrorist groups..ain't it the pot callin' the kettle black…the klu klux klan are the original homegrown domestic variety…it's a damn shame and disgrace 2 humanity!!!

JUST MORE PROOF WHITES HATE BLACKS FOR NO OTHER REASON THAN THE FACT THEY ARE BLACK!!!!
And that's exactly what's going to happen if blacks don't stop assaulting, raping and killing whites. History will repeat itself.
White History. Disgusting really
WHO'S THE PRESIDENT?
why I have been easier to respect and love everyone. and I do.

Judgement is coming to White America. Read your KVJ Bible.
