BIXBY, Okla. (AP) — A Black business leader and community activist who joined Tulsa civic leaders in fighting then-President Donald Trump's plan to hold a campaign rally on Juneteenth in a city known as the site of one of the nation's deadliest white-on-Black mob attacks has been killed in what police describe as a domestic incident at her home.

Gamble Smith was president of the Black Wall Street Chamber of Commerce, named after Tulsa's Greenwood commercial district — an area of concentrated Black wealth — that white rioters burned in 1921. Up to 300 Black Tulsa residents were killed, and t he area never recovered.
She was vocal in her opposition to President Donald Trump's plans to hold his first campaign rally of the COVID era there on Juneteenth 2020.

His wife was some big shot in a Black Wall Street in Tulsa.
It’s a Race Riot reparations group.
This is a big deal, kind of like BLM scam being uncovered.

Unsafe, Failing Schools are fine, open air drug markets are good, kids graduate that can’t write basic sentences - but I’m going to fight Donald Trump.
Makes one wonder. Must be $$$ in keeping the neighborhoods dangerous and criminals free range.

Thoughts and prayers (but not really - we all know it was Trump’s fault)
“I’m not saying it definitely IS the Trump Curse, but...”
None, not one, of these black leftists have ever given a single reason for declaring Trump a racist.
Why? Because they believe anyone but a leftist stooge is a racist. No reason beyond that is needed.
All cultures are equal.

White on black mob attacks.
Then we read:
Trump's event was met with protests during a time of nationwide protests
Sounds to me it was black on white protests. Black protesters came after the Trump crowd.
Its crazy that congress made Juneteenth (a day no one cares about) a national holiday simply out of spite for Trump.
The deceased couple. Domestic issue.
