    97 years ago, the worst race riot in American history happened in Tulsa, #Oklahoma. It is estimated that 300 individuals were killed during the massacre, yet many Americans don't know this story. #TulsaRaceRiot #BlackWallStreet #TulsaTriumphspic.twitter.com/A5DkG6svKG

        Education is important. Honesty as well. So can we call it What it was???? Not a riot. But a massacre.

        Thanks for the history @senatorlankford. Any concrete ideas to begin the reconciliation process? May I suggest you stop aligning yourself with the likes of Trump and what the GOP has become? You’re not leaning towards the right side of history, my friend.

        People have posted here about how the black community still have resentment over this event; here’s some things YOU could do 1-More than 300 African Americans were killed that day, 2-Its wasn’t a riot, it was a massacre over land 3-Teach Black History in schools.

        It was not a riot. It was ethnic cleansing and a massacre

        Do you think those "humans" would value YOUR life if you met up in an alley? C'mon. Get real. How is that "racism"? You people are crying wolf one to many times and soon the word will have no meaning. And that has nothing to do with white supremacy, just human decentness.

        If I met them in an alley I would show love, compassion, & empathy toward my fellow human being. That is one thing I learned from my Christian upbringing, that Christ gave one commandment to us; To Love. Trump's actions & words are racism @SenatorLankford knows it. #LankfordLies

        Are you going to leave the past party of Lincoln & Reagan that now sadly represents #Trumpism & all the #racism, #xenophobia, #misogyny, #homophobia & #corruption that comes with it? Practice what you preach, Senator. Leave the @GOP or #impeach your own @POTUS @realDonaldTrump.

        I am more concerned about your desire to protect our democracy. Racism is a major problem for this country. But more important first is preserving our democracy which trump is threatening. Find your spine!
