The Legacy of Black Wall Street
June marks the 100th anniversary of the 1921 Tulsa Massacre -- one of the worst incidents of racial violence in US history, claiming the lives of 300 African-Americans living, working, and thriving in a neighborhood known as Black Wall Street.

CNBC’s Frank Holland reports from Tulsa, Oklahoma, reflecting on those survivor testimonies and the legacy of Black Wall Street. In a conversation about Black representation in finance and beyond, BET Founder and RLJ Companies founder Robert Johnson considers the impact--and the intention--of businesses pledging money and support to the Black community.
