This is what happens when local authorities and governments loos control of a situation or just plain doesn’t care about enforcing public other. Jews and Catholics to a lesser extent had deal with this government failure.
Thanks for posting.
There is an article in this months Smithsonian magazine that I am getting ready to read. I will see how it compares with this report.
“a group of Negros from the Negro section of the city, who according to facts developed after an investigation, had been worked upon by a lawless element of white agitators, reds and. bolshevists and who had been badly advised by members of their own race, were lead to believe that mob violence threatened the Negro prisoner who was in the custody of the sheriff at the county jail;”
That kinda sounds like the way antifa and BLM agitators operate today.
The purposes of Bringing this up 100 years later is to do what? Fan flames?
Who profits from all this? Nobody ever asks this question.
It will be in the news on Monday, but the news will not have this information.
They want reparations. A planned event was cancelled over lack of reparations

Who profits from all this? The actual truth is better than Communist propaganda. The propaganda is that the white people started the Tulsa riot and the blacks were all completely innocent. The fact is that the blacks were stirred up by the communist creeps and as such started a riot. I prefer the truth.
BTTT
Racial tensions were the tenderbox.

Ditto, but the only place we’ll see it today is here on FR.
So you didn’t pay attention to the bicentennial activities? The 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War? The 75th anniversary of the end of World War II or the 150th anniversary of Fort Sumpter?
History just not your thing? .
A different version of events is being circulated which shows no responsibility for black people in the matter, and entire responsibility on white people.
This is some sort of “balance”. Both should be read to attempt to gain a perspective of what really happened.
Actually I do. I like history. However This is being brought up to coincide with George Floyd and BLM and to start more riots. So I suppose these new riots are in the form of ‘reparations ‘?
My family has lived in the area before Oklahoma was a state. The old timers say the blacks burned Greenwood down themselves. I don’t have first hand knowledge. Would people really destroy their own community?
The trouble is already there. Bringing this up just shows that there is an alternative to just tolerating it.
