Why revert to blame Whites too theoria

You really think there haven’t been enough blame Hitler movies....are u kidding..

Hollywood lives for Shoah and blame whites especially right wing whites which is precisely how they see Nazis....despite Levin and Beck trying to reverse historical precedent

Nazi excess is precisely why we haven’t dealt with anything non White or non Christian realistically since WWII

FEAR OF THE HITLER CARD WHICH YOU JUST ILLUSTRATED

Again my question

Blacks have targeted whites...for two to three generations as predators

Yet shit like Tulsa gets the attention

From THAT Hollywood

Then I see someone on a conservative forum reflexively reach for the Hitler card when asked

And I know how far gone we are....

In the 1970s, I worked with an older white man who told me of his time spent in the archer-Greenwood brothels back in the 1940s or so. One of the last brothels closed down some time in the 1970s to complete the 244 bypass.
Hwy 244 crosses a section of that area.

Back in the 1970s, OETA had a program of news films of the past, narrated by Lowell Thomas. One of them dealt with the Tulsa Race Riot.

I first learned of the riot back in 1970 from a book at the Tulsa County Library. The riot was not forgotten or covered up, it just was not on everyone’s mind all the time as such happenings are today.

Wonder how many remember the riots in several cities the 1840s in which Free Blacks rioted because do-gooder whites wanted to send them back to Africa. They wanted to stay in the USA as they had nothing in common in Africa.

According to the report from that 1921 linked to below, even then leftists were at work:

"The published report of the arrest of a Negro boy charged with an attempted assault on a white woman occasioned little comment among the white people who fully expected the law to take its course in the matter. Unfortunately, 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"

And then, like now decent people of all races joined together to help those whose lives were impacted by the violence.

"The National Guard got into real action about noon and immediately the process of rounding up Negro men, women and children began, and by night of June 1st probably 6,000 Negroes had been escorted and driven to Convention Hall, McNulty ball park and the Tulsa County fair grounds. The civic societies of Tulsa immediately got busy with preparations for feeding and caring for the homeless Negroes. The Red Cross, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. agencies were put to work, all of the downtown churches were quickly filled with refugees and substantially the entire Negro population was under guard and under protection by nightfall of the second day of the riot."

The leaders of the city immediately got to work to assist those who had lost their homes and businesses.

"“The deplorable event is the greatest wound Tulsa’s civic pride has ever received and every right thinking man and woman in the city, white and black, is now doing everything possible to heal the wound as quickly as may be. Leading business men are in hourly conference and a movement is now being organized, not only for the succor, protection and alleviation of the sufferings of the Negroes, but to formulate a plan of reparation in order that homes may be rebuilt and families as nearly as possible rehabilitated. The sympathy of the citizenship of Tulsa in a great wave has gone out to the unfortunate law-abiding Negroes who became victims of the action and bad advice of some of the lawless leaders, and as quickly as possible rehabilitation will take place and reparation be made."

So even in 1921 leftists stir up riots and the rest of society takes care of the victims in the aftermath. Needless to say the narrative of the modern leftists won't include all of the details.

That might be interesting... if he finds the paper could it be a stand alone post? Thanks Lurkin.

85 dead? Not the 'feared' 300 this article refers to?

Either way more blacks were murdered by other blacks in Chicago and New York in the last two weeks than died at this 'massacre'...

All Biden's doing is throwing salt in old wounds... ginning up racial hatred.

According to democrats the only black lives that matter - AND the only black deaths that matter - are those involving white people or cops. The hundred of thousands of blacks slaughtered by other blacks don't matter.

It's time for black citizens to leave the democrat plantation...
