The massacre in the Black Wall Street
If you are like most people, you did not learn something about the massacre in the Black Wall Street in 1921. This is part of our history that many would rather forget. . . But we shouldn’t.
Listen to the authority of Black Wall Street, Hannibal B. Johnson, Strange money®:
Hannibal B. Johnson in Tulsa’s Greenwood District, Black Wall Street
At least 300 people were killed and injured in the Tulsa Race Riot from 1921. 1,250 houses, companies and schools were burned, which causes property damage of $ 2 million (today more than 25 million US dollars corresponds). Tulas Greenwood District, lovingly known as Black Wall Street, was destroyed by a lot of thousands of white men. Why are so few Americans of this story aware of? Hannibal B. Johnson is a lawyer, activist and independent consultant with specialist knowledge in terms of diversity, inclusion and cultural competence. He is a member of the 400 years of the African American History Commission and the chair of the Education Committee for the Tulsa Race Massacre Centennial Commission. Hannibal is also the author of many books, including Black Wall Street: from uprising to the Renaissance in Tulsa’s historical Greenwood District and the Black Wall Street 100: An American city grabs its historical racist trauma. In this episode of Queer MoneY®, Hannibal merges us to explain how Tulsa was in the early 20th century and describes the entrepreneurial spirit of the black community in her Greenwood district. He leads us through the events in connection with the Tulsa Race Riot from 1921 and discussed what triggered the burning of the Black Wall Street and how the African -American community was rebuilt. Listen to understand how our history of systemic racism influences the current wealth gap and learn how to help Hannibal to raise awareness of what happened in Tulsa 100 years ago.
