Description

Greenwood, or “Black Wall Street,” a once thriving section of 1920s Tulsa, met its ultimate demise at the hand of White rioters. Work to answer the question: Why was Black financial stability a threat?

Begin to explore what the success of this Black neighborhood meant for the town’s White counterparts, and how racial minorities’ independence was and potentially continues to be, a threat to White power structures in the United States.
