Something is off here. What about the great migration after the massacres? Most of these Black people had to flee to the Northern parts.
the great migration was away from the rural south, to cities. Tulsa may seem southern, but it was a new city, and Oklahoma was a new state, and the first wave of black people into Oklahoma was an effort to build a black majority and shape the laws of the new state. Tulsa was a city black people moved
to
I don't like dwelling on the past too much. What's stopping us from creating a black wall street today?
learn from history or be doomed
Thread off of saying the Tulsa massacre wasnt that bad to Black ppl really didnt have it that rough in the South. I've seen where this is going before. Slavery was a choice
We still slaves
retarded responses like this convince me some nikkas are playing for the other team
All of that still existed after integration though. I grew up in a black neighborhood. And had black doctors and dentists. And went to Sunday dinner at black owned restaurants.
Where did you grow up where that wasn’t possible?
come on man, none of that existed at anywhere close to that extent, because we were pushed to want to be part of the cac world
I grew up in southeastern Queens, the top black middle class enclave of NYC. you'd never see anyone living in the neighborhood or walking down the street who wasn't black, but there were still far more arab corner stores, Indian franchisees and Chinese food spots than black owned anything. and even though there was a solid amount of money there, how much of it do you think was spent within the community?
