Greenwood in Tulsa wasn't killed off by the riots, but by integration and government policies

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

They destabilize and attack communities through policy and politics. Much more than they did forcefully.

Which is why I will NEVER understand non voters. You turn a blind eye to anything from local council up to the State level and this is where plays get made. Political participation is necessary to make policy challenges and obstruction their intrusion.

1) Half the black population moved out of the apartheid south between 1910 and 1970.

2) These were rational human beings making the most rational choices for their families not some revisionist history from brain dead youtubers trying to white wash apartheid.

What are you talking about apartheid? What apartheid are you talking about? I asked to give me reputable sources on your claims that Black Americans moved up North because it was glorious for them in the confederate South.

It should be easy for you to show thus, since half of revisionist history from brain dead youtubers trying to white wash apartheid.

Let's go to the deep waters and have an academic discourse.

Do you feel the White Supremacists who led entire states to violently fight against integration for 30 years were just really really good actors?

Excellent post.

Thats what happened to most successful Black Areas

Till this very day.

Blacks begging for the government to come in and take care of us, without overseeing what exactly they're doing..

They seriously posted a Wall Street Journal article claiming the riots weren't all that bad and desegregation was the real problem.

Thread off of saying the Tulsa massacre wasnt that bad to Black ppl really didnt have it that rough in the South. I've seen where this is going before. Slavery was a choice We still slaves

If am retarded, I can only wonder how feeble minded you are! Complete imbecile!

You have a Kenyan flag, talked about the Confederates in the South of America claimed that Blacks had it great there. And related that to the apartheid regime in South Africa.


I physically and intellectually slap the shyt out of you!




You remind me of this guy.

To be fair not enough money goes into local elections which leaves voters oblivious to voting even happening. Yeah we here about the city council elections in the big cities but I live in a suburb and dont even know who the fukking mayor is. Voting in this country is a scam. Attention is only brought on the big elections but not local government.
Edit: well I be damned, my town has a black mayor and half the town council is black

So...........can a Tulsa be recreated in today's society or not?

 

[Ish Gibor]

While they were confiscating Black wealth they gave whites opportunities and money.

“Mysterious” fires everytime try to find records of black people

Segregation was bad but integration took so much from our communities. You had black doctors, business owners, teachers, etc. Black everything. Imagine growing up around that in the 70s and 80s instead of drug dealers and crack heads.

All of that still existed after integration though. I grew up in a black neighborhood. And had black doctors and dentists. And went to Sunday dinner at black owned restaurants.

Where did you grow up where that wasn’t possible?
