Chick running the elevator (back when elevators had operators). Black dude goes in the elevator. The doors close. Depending on who you believe he either tripped and fell into her, or she was sexually assaulted. Either way when the doors opened back up she was a mess and he ran away.

This biggest run of lynching was when the Italian mob tried to set up shop in New Orleans.  Locals put a definite stop to that crap.

Southern Democrat to be more specific.

Ya know, the ones that split the democrat party and started voting republican.


In this particular instance. The young white girl never claimed the black kid did anything wrong. Everyone just assumed the black kid attacked her... can't really justify why they arrested him, so people showed up to make sure they didn't hang him over nothing.... because people did that shit then...

The events there after predominantly describe human mob behavior, both sides.

Quoted:
local news channel has a article by the ap, it says a black man was accused of stepping on a white girls foot .it said as many as 300 black tulsans were killed and thousands of survivors were forced for a time into internment camps overseen by the national guard

Quoted:
I wasn't born until 1956 and have never been in the state of Kansas, how am I responsible in any manner for any part of the supposed incident?
The answer is I'm not, nor would anyone else be responsible if they weren't present at the incident. So I'm not interested in any fictions regarding
this purported incident.

Okay...

Firstly,  you live in OK.  Its part of your states history and was more likely to be covered by your school system, just like the Texas Revolution is covered in Texas Schools.  

Secondly, I don't think anyone is skeptical that this event happened.  What everyone is giving the side eye to is that the name "Tulsa Race Massacre"  Is a relatively new thing.  It just is.  if you are going to call me a liar, well, here's my evidence.  Here is the Google trend results for "Tulsa Race Massacre"

https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/171734/Tulsa_Race_png-1963867.JPG

Seems like that phrase didnt even exist 4 years ago.  but yet some how for some reason the the media narrative changed approximately 4 years ago.  No clue as to what could've caused that...   but anyways it really hit a fever pitch last year.  

pretty much everyone here is rolling their eyes at the "rebranding" of this poor segment of American History and Amplifying it to an extreme amount.  What is the goal of such Narrative amplification?  I can't say for sure but I am pretty certain its for bullshit purposes.  


Edit: here's an even better graphic.  Google Trends results of "Tulsa Race massacre" (blue) in comparison to "tulsa race riot" (red)

https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/171734/tulsa_race_2_png-1963868.JPG

Seems like since metrics were started to be kept (January 2004), The "tulsa Race riot" has always had Some sort of presence in google searchs, even though not large.  Compare that with the last two years of "tulsa Race massacre".  

yup,  no narrative to push here.  certainly no effort to artificially amplify things for political reasons... nope.

I honestly don’t give a fuck.

Quoted:
Black shoeshine boy takes elevator with white young girl elevator operator. Something happens in the elevator and she screams as the doors open that she’s been assaulted and he runs out.  He gets arrested and taken to the jail.  Crowd forms outside the jail.  A few groups of black men arm up and roll to the jail. Some sort of argument ensues with the people gathered outside the jail and “a gun goes off”. The black guys open fire on the white crowd and in the end 10 white people are dead and two black people.  Some debate if the two black people dead were actually crossfire from other black people.  Either way, both the results and the accounts show that it’s pretty clear that the white people were not very armed, hence the lopsided death count.  White Tulsa goes “ wait you’re going to come to the jail and then open fire on the white crowd?  NOPE”. White Tulsa arms up.  Black Tulsa s retreat to the Greenwood district(Black part of town) and arm up.  The next morning there’s a big gun fight all day in Greenwood, White versus black.

After everything is over the official death toll is 24 black, 12 white.  And all sorts of rumors that plenty of other black people were killed but that the bodies were disposed of but every time they look in a spot where am eyewitness said “I saw them dump bunch of black people in that mass grave over there“ there’s not a mass grave and nothings there.  They decided to rename at the Tulsa race massacre, it was originally named the Tulsa race riot, a few years ago so now there’s a big push to try to prove that it was a massacre.  They came out empty in so many places than recently they decided to dig up an area where 18 of the 24 officially counted black dead were buried in order to give a narrative that they “found black people buried”.

The other narrative is that the Greenwood district was the “ Black Wall Street“ and that the race riot destroyed that black community and wealth. Basically the race riot destroyed Wakanda and that wealth inequality in Tulsa in the country at large is partially due to that riot.  What is never talked about in the news is that they actually rebuilt Greenwood district and black Wall Street area after the race riot even larger than it was before and it continued to be prosperous through the 1950’s.  It eventually died out when desegregation allowed/encouraged the black community to be less insular.  But the strong insinuation in the news is that the race riot destroyed Black Wall Street and it never recovered

A few living witnesses to the event wanted $1M each to attend the 100yr anniversary. This is all being shoved in our faces so they can push reparations.

It is part of the required foundational myth for the new morality of the masses.

It's also funny how riot becomes massacre, protest becomes insurrection, election reform becomes voter suppression etcetc when certain people get hold of it.
