Originally Published February 9th 2020.Almost 99 years ago, 35 blocks of an all-black neighborhood in a major American city was burned to the ground. But for all the years since, the Tulsa Massacre of 1921 has been mostly forgotten. How did the worst incident of racial violence in American history get ignored? How did it even happen to begin with? In part 1, a look at the story of the city of Tulsa, the state of Oklahoma, and the mixture of events that led to the riot in 1921. Lies, racism, corrupt police, the power of media, and how the past is never easily forgotten.
