Today was the 102 year anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre in which white supremacist terrorists mass murdered 300 Black Americans.
Here's how media reported on it—a complete erasure of Black people.
Three Tulsa survivors—Hughes Van Ellis, 102, Lessie Benningfield Randle, 108, and Viola Fletcher, who just turned 109, are with us today. They are the oldest living survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre. They have received $0 reparations.
This isn't ancient history. It's contemporary reality.
