“Learn about Greenwood, Oklahoma”

Greenwood was a district in Tulsa, Oklahoma. As one of the most successful and wealthiest African American communities in the United States during the early 20th Century, it was popularly known as America's "Black Wall Street" until the Tulsa Race Riot of 1921. The riot was one of the most devastating race riots in history and it destroyed the once thriving Greenwood community.

A hard but important visit. Seeing the site of the Tulsa Race Massacre is a proper way to understand the level of devastation and destruction of 36 city blocks and murder of 36 black Tulsans. The neighboring OSU campus needed no clearing due to the chaos unleashed 100 years ago.
