2 sides to every story. I say the local Caucasian population assisted the overwhelmed police force by stopping a violent riot.

Communist have pinned their hopes on racial division, as the only effective way to divide, and a digital voting system

OK state commission found 39 people died not 300. 26 blacks and 13 whites.
Black mob killed 10 white people and then whites retaliated.
Sounds like a case of FAFO to me.
Also, Biden is a divisive tool.

100 years ago, 75 armed men from Greenwood descended on the courthouse, who knows their intentions but we know they weren’t peaceful because they were armed. These armed men caused a scuffle with other citizens, resulting in the death of 10 whites and 2 blacks...the aftermath of this violent assault saw entire sections of the town burned and the national guard was needed to restore order.

To be fair there are a ton of 85 year old “100 year old” black ladies.

Imagine if we had a president who sought out examples of unity. What good can come from drawing attention to the worst interactions between racial groups in human history? I can understand bringing attention to these things and commemorating them, but where are the counter-balancing official visits drawing attention to some examples of racial harmony? Are they even attempting to do so, or is it all about incitement of racial conflict by bringing attention to the worst moments in our history for political gain?

Always about skin color or ethnicity; race baiting piece of shite. Anyone can go thru history and cheery pick horrible events and attach blame.
Very true on all counts. It is just staggering though, almost everything the left does is to promote minority grievances. They are literally obseeesed about this like Gollum was to the ring. It’s their “Precious”. fricking obsessed!

Tulsa Cancellation Of ‘Remember & Rise’ Event On Black Wall Street Massacre Shot Down By Money Demands – Update
By Bruce Haring
UPDATED, May 29: The canceled commemoration of the 1921 Tulsa, Oklahoma Black Wall Street Massacre boiled down to money demands by the living survivors, according to NBC News.
A prior agreement between the Tulsa Race Massacre Centennial Commission and the three living survivors of the event was upended at the last minute. Legal representatives for the survivors previously agreed that they would appear at the “Remember and Rise” event in return for $100,000 each and a $2 million seed gift to a reparations coalition fund, according to state Sen. Kevin Matthews, chairman of the commission, speaking at a Friday press conference.

The parties agreed to those terms, he said.
But at the last minute, the demands changed. Lawyers for the survivors asked for $1 million for each and $50 million for the fund, said Matthews.

“We could not respond to those demands,” he said. “I absolutely want the survivors, the descendants and others that were affected to be financially and emotionally supported, however this is not the way, no matter how hard we try.”
Lawyers representing the survivors and descendants did not comment.

Where are people getting this 300 death figure from? Oklahoma studied this event not long ago and determined that 39 people were killed: 26 blacks and 13 Whites.
Man, sit down and shut up... Your overlords will tell you what the history is and you will like it...
How do you expect them to push reparations if they don't pump the numbers up?

When is Biden going to commemorate the Wichita Massacre of 2000? The odd thing about the massacre was that newspapers outside of Kansas refused to mention the mass murder. If the races had been reversed it would have been a movie.

He doesn’t have a fricking clue…..oh and there are maybe what 2/3 “survivors” that were babies in 1921….

Apparently there are 3 survivors, the oldest being 7 at the time. She has a pretty graphic memory for a 7 year old when she testified before Congress asking for reparations
