re: WATCHMEN Season Long Thread - S1, EP9 (season finale): "See How They Fly"

Watched the first episode Thursday night. Wasn’t overly impressed so far. Like many have said if this series focuses solely on evil whitey then that’s just disappointing and lazy. A few questions that I have. Is the population of Tulsa now overwhelmingly black because of the events of 1921 or is it the entire country. It looks like the percentages have been flipped. The police department ( at least the meeting we saw) is 90% minority. WTF is up with the panda?
What’s the deal with Black Oklahoma? Is there reverse segregation in this reality? Why did the call it black Oklahoma and not just Oklahoma that happened to be put on by black people? I’m assuming Louis Gossett is the little boy that survived the race attacks in 1921. A lot more questions than answers and several decisions made by the show runners that seemed forced.
