Tulsa, Oklahoma houses Greenwood District, better known as Black Wall Street. Black Wall Street was one of the most powerful Black neighborhoods in the U.S. That is, until White Tulsans decided to destroy it out of rage. In this episode, Krista and her listeners will walk through Black Wall Street, exploring the history of how Greenwood District became Black Wall Street. Plus, she speaks on the Tulsa Race Massacre, its effects, and how meritocracy is a myth perpetuated to ignore the struggles of different people. Even 100 years later, the Tulsa Race Massacre continues to affect not just the surviving victims and the victims' descendants, but also African-American families throughout the country.
