That's surreal how easily some people can turn when, there's no perceived consequences.
I heard about incidences in the super dome, but not on the street. I couldn't people behaving irrational during the peak of the storm. I really gotta go back and watch some clips of Katrina.
I know.The people of Tulsa have been researching for the mass graves for years before Watchmen first episode.
I'm just overthinking
A true reparation would be the violence that cacs visited upon us to be revisited upon them. I'm not telling anyone to get in trouble. But this has been going on for too long.

Disappearing Black Cemetery in Bastrop County Provides Link to Past - Reporting Texas
“It hurts my heart to guess how often these (cemeteries) are lost,” Fly said. “I would say probably thousands have been lost over the centuries — just in Texas.”
In 2004, the Texas Historical Commission used surveys of the 49 fastest growing counties to estimate about 50,000 cemeteries exist in the state. But only 20,000 are known. Researching, locating and preserving each one is an arduous and complex process. Deed records, census records or, if possible, oral histories are all used in locating burial sites and recovering the life stories of the deceased.

That's the same thing that happened back throughout history- the problem is that we were outnumbered and out "gunned". People want to push the narrative that black people were "submissive" or didn't fight back, but that's not the case. Either we underestimated the level of violence and chaos that white people would go to suppress us and whites don't believe in a "fair fight" meaning they would enlist militias and other "law enforcement" departments from other states, cities, counties, towns to help fight their battles. Whereas we, didn't have those types of resources in our disposal to effectively link up or arm ourselves in self-defense. We fought back with what we could in the ways that we had. But the issue is, we were minding our business - it's the whites that stayed trying to infiltrate or instigate, always thinking that we would be cut down or us giving rise to an insurrection. Paranoid scared and nosy m'fers that they are.
There are sources but it's not going to be your average "google" type search. There's Research Databases that I access to read the information. Like you have to look at the actual reports, not the reporters (if that makes sense)- I'm talking about primary sources. I use a lot of law journals and password accessible sites, so when I started looking - it opened up a rabbit hole of details. Strange is an understatement. Demonic. This was years ago, I think I saved info on my laptop at home. I'll see what I can find later and reply to you. The 911 calls and transcripts are the worse- I can't even go there with those. People realizing that they had nowhere to go, no rescue was coming, stuck in their attacks or dens - you can hear the demise in their voices. Most of the chaos was not from the people - people in charge contributed to most of the dysfunction. Which is what they try to suppress.
They were abandoning people with mental problems at health care facilities - think of what happens when you release a schizophrenia or hallucinations out into the street to fend for themselves. Prisons, correctional officers housing maximum security child rapists/abusers/murderers were left unstaffed and without guards. Now mix that in with people who have health problems or require urgent medical care - newborns, people with surgical procedures, if a person has dialysis and misses their appointment, they won't survive. Complete breakdown and havoc. There are similarities between that and the race riots/massacres. Same sides of a different coin. Desperate people trying to survive under conditions made worse by the white establishment that contributed to the decline of an already negative situation. People trying to save and protect their families and still having to face violence against them by so-called people there to enforce laws= suppression and silencing.
