#122 Tulsa Massacre

It’s May 31,1921, Tulsa Oklahoma, there is a girl getting ready for a prom at the local high school. A boy and his family are about to sit down for dinner, many families of the Greenwood district prepare for a quiet evening. But at the sametime an unspoken shockwave is making its way across the area, often referred to as Black Wall Street. A wave of uncertainty, anger, and fear. Hushed conversations by the back door. Shortly, all hell will break loose, and for many of the area's veterans and residents alike, they will be back in a war zone, fighting to defend everything they hold dear.
