Television Shows about the tragedy will air this weekend.

One of the most loathsome times in Oklahoma history is also one of its least well-known. On May 31 and June 1, 1921 white residents of Tulsa attacked the Black neighborhood known as Greenwood, and the Black Wall Street. Over 300 people were killed, and hundreds of homes and businesses burned and destroyed.

As we mark the one hundredth anniversary of the Tulsa Massacre, several TV shows will help to shine an honest light on what happened, and how we can move forward knowing and acknowledging the tragedy and travesty that occurred, and the continuing injustice that perseveres.
