Episode 6: How Tulsa's Black Wall Street Reflects Our World Today
What’s going on in the world right now is heavy. I had a ton of topics planned and even reached out to some guests but this is more pertinent.
I refuse to just go on as scheduled when my people are dying and we’ve been dying for decades at this point. But I'm hoping today’s topic fuels you to take action and also inspires you to take the necessary steps toward ownership. We can’t be at the table, or even build our own table, without it.
So today we’re going to take a walk down memory lane and discuss Tulsa’s Black Wall Street, a thriving black-owned and operated community known as the Greenwood District. While it started (in 1906) and thrived for years, it eventually faced major turmoil on May 31, 1921 via the Tulsa Race Massacre. What’s sad, is that we are experiencing a lot of the same issues right now (almost 100 years later) but I truly believe that my people will come out on the other side of this better!
If you’ve never heard of Tulsa’s Black Wall Street, you’re in for a treat.
If you’re familiar with it, listen anyway and share with everyone you know.
So sit back, grab your pen and paper (you’re going to want to learn more) and let’s talk about Tulsa’s Black Wall Street.
