Writing for The Yale Review in September 2024, the Black studies scholar and writer Christina Sharpe argued that “Language is one way we make and sustain relation. Words are one way we begin the work of unmaking and changing the shape of the world.” 📚 https://t.co/MIUsbta4Dm

105 years ago today — May 31, 1921 — horror came to Tulsa.

A thriving, self-made Black community known as "Black Wall Street" was brutally attacked by white mobs in one of the most devastating acts of racial violence in American history.

They burned it to the ground. Hundreds of Black-owned homes and businesses — symbols of pride, prosperity, and hard-won success — were looted and reduced to rubble. At least 36 Black residents were murdered, over 800 were injured, and thousands more were left homeless, their dreams and life's work destroyed in a single night of terror.

A community that had risen against all odds was violently crushed. We remember Greenwood. We remember the lives stolen. We remember the pain that still echoes.
