- [Woman's Voice] This was one of the worst incidence

of racial violence in US history.

- [Man's Voice] An unruly white mob,

destroyed part of this city, which was the black community.

- [Voice] They had just gained their freedom.

They're just getting a foothold

and building something for themselves and for their futures,

and within two days in the most horrific way,

everything that they hoped for, was gone.

- You have people, a generation out of slavery

who built something that no one else could have done.

- African Americans in Tulsa, Oklahoma,

should have those same banners above their hotels,

above their barbershops that say "Since the 19-Teens"

and yet they don't.

- We know that no white person was ever held accountable

for any offense relative to them.

- There was government sanctioned, torture and terrorism.

That's the history of Tulsa,

going back to the 1921 massacre

and Tulsa and the state of Oklahoma

have never made amends for that.

- If you don't know your history, it will repeat itself.

Well, it's repeating itself.

- It is terrifying because you realize

that it could happen today.

- The militia represented Saturday before last

is the exact same mob that was represented in 1921,

when the massacre took place.

- I guess the great hope is that this

will never happen again, if you tell the story,

but

until they obtain justice for this massacre,

there can't be healing.
