On this day in 1921, a white mob attacked the thriving Black community of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma—known as Black Wall Street. Over 300 people were killed, thousands were displaced, and more than 35 blocks were burned to the ground. The Tulsa Massacre was not just an act of racial violence, but a deliberate assault on Black prosperity and self-determination.
