Crime and poverty are rampant in Jackson, MS and the majority black residents do not have adequate running water due to ongoing idiotic liberal leadership and their failures.

But you don’t care. Why? Why this 100 years ago… but no care now?

Lol… downvote and gone!! Cmon!!! You are supposed to care! The programming says so! Use your thoughts guys….. why do you not care NOW. Why 100 years ago. But not NOW.

It started because 75 armed blacks went to the courthouse due to a rumor a black teen was going to be lynched. In the resulting confrontation 10 whites and 2 blacks were killed.

Black people honestly think we want them all to fail. We don’t.
This has always amazed me. Why, why would we want blacks to fail?

Do they think it’s somehow to our advantage to have an uneducated, poor population? I know the Democrats want them poor and uneducated to continue to get their votes, but why would normal Americans want this?

A safe, educated and prosperous black community is good for all Americans, except the Democrats.

The Tulsa riot is a total blood libel. National Guard records from the day show it was blacks burning their own community (is anyone shocked)

This was a Democrat revolt. They didn't want black people succeeding on their own so they had to put that down


Actually it started by a black man being arrested for assaulting a young white girl and a group of white men wanted him lynched. Group of armed black men arrived outside jail to protect him, cops tried to disperse the crowds, violence erupted. People got killed, it sparked city wide riots.

Had both sides let the justice system work as intended, nothing would have happened.

Seems not much has changed at all

You can't blame it on race. I'd rather live with Igbo immigrants than a redneck family next door, for example.

The male was falsely accused and folks showed up to make sure no lynching took place. Things escalated once the gov't was called in and bomb the AA community.

Great Videon the subject.

I've read up on this story for years unlike many in this thread who are prob. just hearing about this now. Had the AA residents not have guns, the massacre would've been worse.

Columbia (TN) is site of a similar story except the gov't didn't do the bidding of racists in this case. Thurgood Marshall was there for the experience as well.

If 75 of them hadn't shown up armed at the courthouse and killed 10 white folks it never would have happened.

And nothing from Vox, your video producer, is unbiased. They are so far left it's a waste of time to watch.

Was it right what happened? Hell no. But it did not start without a pretty large push from the black community with the dead whites at the courthouse.

Like I said earlier. As far as I'm concerned the Dems are pushing for a repeat with their continual race baiting.

Everything was fine until one of the yte aggressors decided to disarm an AA man. Tulsa massacre was gov't sanctioned violence point blank.

Vox produces a lot of excellent videos. Maybe conservative sites need to step up their production values instead of focusing on memes.
