    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 #TulsaTriumphs pic.twitter.com/A5DkG6svKG

        Why don't you ask them to teach about those currently being massacred in schools like Sandy Hook, Parkland, Sante Fe, etc, etc ,etc. Learn grammar, do better also.

        Unfortunately a lot of Americans have not learned anything from history. Bigotry is running rampant through our country and those in power are doing nothing to help.

        It sadly is too easy to find evidence of your hypocrisy. Your fellow #SouthernBaptist would not let a resolution out of committee to condemn racism & the alt-right #WhiteSupremacy Trump supports. Your words, as usual, are void. #LankfordLies #TulsaRaceRiothttps://www.washingtonpost.com/news/acts-of-faith/wp/2017/06/14/why-southern-baptists-cant-shake-their-racist-past/?utm_term=.6bf1f4afec5b …

        I am sickened by how far backwards our country has gone since Trump arrived. The #GOP dropped to their knees and began to worship him. The Evangelicals threw their beliefs to the rubbish heap. #Racists were welcomed with open arms. Maybe you should watch some #RFK video footage.

        Thank you for calling it a massacre. Now if we can get our state to fund education enough to buy updated books and pay teachers a living wage....

        Good work on race relations. Do NOT EVER sign another "CR". Regular order budget ONLY. No AMNESTY CANDY for your buddies, until YOUR CONSTITUENTS GET THE WALL FULLY BUILT (as in BUILT, DONE, FINISHED).

        Pay for your own wall. And you live in Cushing? A wall doesn't benefit you at all except some deranged concern for tax dollars. Be more concerned of you tax dollars going to corporate welfare. Or are you just racist?

        The GOP seems to be nothing but racists following a president that claimed Obama wasn't born in the US, yet you lick his boots at every turn. Now he thinks he's a king that can pardon himself, and you remain silent. Your complicity will not be forgotten. @TomColeOK04 @RepMullin

        What have we learned I Oklahoma? Nothing. Nothing at all. This state voted for a Racist Bigot by the highest margin in the country. Racism is alive and well here in the home of Evangelical Christians like yourself.
