It's amazing how they've kept this out of our history books…. The majority of our children has never even heard of the Tulsa race riot.. A shame…

Dennis Jeter says:

Black people are dupped by whites and other ignorant blacks to believe that to remember our history is a bad thing.

Dennis Jeter says:

The history that you forget is the history you repeat. I am a black man of 50 years old. I have a wealthy Jewish friend who my wife works for. while at his home one day. I glanced upon an open book in his den titled "Never Forget". Now go and tell a Jew to forget about Hitler. You cant tell me their prosperity is not tied to their unity, due to the atrocities of the Holocaust. We are the only people told to forget and we fall for it!!

Eye of The Cry says:

So messed up just how involved these savages were in destroying black communities. Then present day bigots have the nerve to belittle blacks and act pretend blacks were always violent and savage. They have the nerve to think these thug culture arose out of nowhere but its really all their doing. How they controlled and made Black Americans suffer for so long.

This, along with the Red Summer of 1919 (look it up), should serve as a testament to what Whites are capable of when communally aroused. As my father always told me, 'never trust Indians or people of foreign ancestry'.

American African Committee says:

have you seen the streets of west Baltimore recently? it's a war zone !

@Born2Flesh
Seriously? With that logic I should just go outside and shoot myself because of something that a man who I've never met might have done. That is insane, racism will never die because of thinking like that. We should learn from the past, not let it rule us.

We studied it in our history classes. I'm from Tulsa. Get real, we aren't slaves to our grandfather's generation. The world is as you make it to be.

midnitedawn says:

@Shareeberrie I agree!

midnitedawn says:

@Born2Flesh truth!

Born2Flesh says:

The thing ALL Americans should know is, The Black Wall Street is just one example of how White Americans destroyed successful Black all over the USA. This is the history you won't find in America's history books. This is the history that goes untold because they don't want you to know the truth about all the mass-murders that took places all around the USA in post-slavery America. BURNING DOWN SUCCESSFUL BLACK COMMUNITIES WAS AS COMMON AS THE LYNCHINGS AND MASS-MURDERS.
