The Tulsa Race Massacre: The Department of Justice Review and Evaluation

By Department of Justice

Just days after it released a blistering report on what really happened 100 years ago in Tulsa, Oklahoma -- detailing how the white citizens literally massacred Tulsa's black citizens, and how it was covered up -- the Trump administration stopped all future investigations by the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department. Now you can read that report about an attack "so systematic and coordinated that it transcended mere mob violence. . ."

"The Tulsa Race Massacre stands out as a civil rights crime unique in its magnitude, barbarity, racist hostility and its utter annihilation of a thriving Black community. In 1921, white Tulsans murdered hundreds of residents of Greenwood, burned their homes and churches, looted their belongings and locked the survivors in internment camps.

Until this day, the justice department has not spoken publicly about this race massacre or officially accounted for the horrific events that transpired in Tulsa. This report breaks that silence by rigorous examination and a full accounting of one of the darkest episodes of our nation's past. This report lays bare new information and shows that the massacre was the result not of uncontrolled mob violence, but of a coordinated, military-style attack on Greenwood."
