- Is American history fact or fiction? Much of what we learn in school is wrong, because it is told from the white male perspective. Journalist Elaine Appleton Grant tells the story of the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921, and how learning about the conspiracy of silence around this tragedy transformed the most important relationship in her life -- and why exposing the untold stories about race in America has the power to heal our personal relationships, our communities and our divided nation.

I moved to Tulsa when I was in the 6th grade and no it was not taught in school. I found out about this massacre on you tube. America shame on you, shame on you America.
We’ve ALL been deliberately miseducated. Who benefits? Educate yourself to understand America.
Exactly 👏👏
They are still trying to brush this under the rug. It takes all of us to fight to get this taught in schools.

@Margaret Kpeh Do today's immigrants have the SAME RIGHTS as those "European settlers" who used superior weapons to decimate the Native Americans? What about the Sand Creek massacre? What about the Trail of Tears?
You wrote, "The British and French Canadians gave weapons to the Indians to kill European settlers who defected from the monarchies of Europe." That is NOT how the land was taken from the First American People. This country was settled PRIMARILY by British settlers with GUNS. I think the purpose of this lady's lecture was to get people to look at TRUTH, and move in TRUTH. As long as we lie and try to rewrite history, there will be lack of progress in human relations.
IT WAS HIDDEN BECAUSE THERE IS A HUGE CHECK TO BE PAID TO THESE PEOPLE
@Steven Allen there are over 100 from 1866 through world war 2. A new site blackmassscreproject . org has the information.
@Steven Allen You are on point.........now they want to pretend that they are just hearing about Tulsa.......yeah right. One thing they love to brag about is generational wealth..........where/who.....did MANY of them get it from? Oh but when we talk about our stories of atrocities that their ancestors committed...........they tell us......”that was the past....move on”.
@@dianebozeman5275 l no boo
It was a crime scene covered up by the government.
@Steven Allen 20 is not even close.
1906 Atlanta Massacre, Rosewood Massacre the list goes on but we are the Savages and we are the violent ones
Yup.
Same assholes that tried to wipe out an entire nation. Nothing changed. The only difference is; they hide behind a letter. "D" & "R".

@@ladyofspa yes ma’am I’m aware some self inflicted wounds caused by our ancestors in there too but these I mentioned was far beyond of what TMH told the 70 shepherds
I kind of laugh when people in this country claim to have a History degree. I would give it the equivalent of a grade school degree because you know they weren't taught real American history.
Depends how you look at it. Just like a highway that runs through a city. Just passing by. You can still be correct. But unless you live there?! You don't know what really goes on. So there are many truths. Just not not the whole truth.
@@ricklodestein1101 👄Doesn't depend on how you look it! Depends on what you are taught...whitewashed history is not truth!! You were taught a lie...by omission of the truth!!

But theyll teach your boys to be girls
Correct hurt feelings is a part of it! But then the white nationalists wouldn't want to pay out what is owed: respect to fellow human beings, exposing the truth of African American contributions to America and of course the financial compensation owed to make right the blocking of economic growth to African American owned businesses.
@@mrlr9602 I agree whole heartily, teaching that Satanic mess. Mitch McCornells (Rep) and his clan can not stop this one there are other towns that was Prospering: Roswood, NC, Detroit, Chicago etc.

They won't do it because what happened was in Tulsa was shameful, and would make a lot of people uncomfortable too bad if it happened to European Americans, they would MAKE SURE everyone knows.
Missing from the white woman's stiry: The names of the 3 living survivors (ages 100, 106, & 107) who recently testified b4 Congress, and have to beg fo restitution. Shame. Shame. Shame.

I saw the movie on local tv on a weekend about 5 years ago. It was labeled "based on a true story." I was not only shocked/horrified this happened but that it was covered up buried in history.
Do you mean a documentary? Will you please share the title? Thanks.
What's the name of the documentary?
You have to ask the question, why have SO many stories of race atrocities been hidden, or not brought up from history... Does all the negative race events in history paint a bad picture on america's brand?
Yes..it does...it has meaning... January 6th ..same meaning..
The same reason why they are trying to bury Jan 6th 2021.
It might help to stop calling it race atrocities and just start calling it white violence.
@@mayamichelle6741 More like genocide
They just don’t want to pay 🤷🏾♀️ as simple as that!!!
If you are curious, research "Red Summer". This happened in many cities across the US. She hit the nail on the head when she said, these events were called "race riots" when in fact they were more like massacres/ethnic cleansings.
I'm a descendent of this atrocity and my great grandmother who lived it would talk about it every Sunday after church. I was born in Tulsa and later moved to Oklahoma city. This was never taught in school yet we learned of the Alamo, Boston tea party, trail of tears etc.
Thanks for sharing your story.
Something Elain is distorting is that US History lessons center around large change events. Lessons about race in these curriculums tend to revolve around two time periods: The Civil War era and the Civil Rights era. Both of these eras contain multiple atrocities and events that help people understand lessons to be learned from what was perpetrated by some in an inhumane culture. I noticed you omitted these events taught in every school. You learned about the Boston Tea Party as part of the bigger era of change, The American Revolutionary War, So, my point in saying this is that this strategy is used for all subjects found in US history and there are many important events that are not included because they did not happen in an era of change dominated by that subject. Both you and the speaker’s implication is that the education system doesn’t teach about racism because this specific event is not taught, but of course that is not true.
It might be a fruitful exercise to imagine 244 years of historic events condensed into a 3-4 month class that meets for 3 hours each week. Obviously 244 years of nonstop US History doesn’t fit into that amount of time, so it is not a question of racism, coverup, or even lack of desire but strategy to pick eras with large groups of events that teach similar lessons.
European-American Violence was, and still is, the greatest domestic terror threat that we face in this country.
And others! Palestine☹
In the world!
Bull Corn. You heard that from Mr. Potato Head. Your biggest threat is falling for a Democrat politicians lies again.
@@earlofmar7987 Yes
Your sentence does not make sense. The Whig Party/ Democrat KKK members, were primarily English. It was The Whigs, that brought the slaves, that established the Plantations. Then the Scot's arrived in 1700's, they hated the English & hated Slavery. Neither are considered European. The Scot's beat the English during the Revolutionary War. But they kept coming back. They armed the Tecumseh Indians, to attack settlers up near the Great Lakes. Burned the White House, invaded Baltimore and invaded Louisiana. All within 3 years. 1812-1815. Then these same Democrats started a Civil War, and guess who supported them and gave them gold.....The English.
I think We tend to not fully understand racism for one reason: white people usually don’t have to go through it
I don't think that's a valid excuse. I'm not LGBTQ but I know and understand that homophobia and bigotry exists; I'm not Jewish but I know that anti-semitism exist; I'm not Muslim....you get the picture. I don't accept that people don't know. That people don't know about the extent of racism neither past, nor present. That people choose to avoid what is avoidable to them, that is something else and it is by choice.
I think we all in some way have been racially profiled in one or another. Maybe not to the extent of dieing like these folks were. I was a short white guy. Who do you think got picked last for most sports? Until I proved myself I was always last. Not to take away from this terrible massacre but in some ways we've all experienced some sort of racism. Just a tought.
@@HerseySyntheticOil I think what you're describing here is more akin prejudice. We've all experienced various forms of prejudice. Racial discrimination however, attempts to reduce/dehumanize or invalidate someone based on something as inane as skin color. In your scenario, there is then no way a person can then "prove their worth" to the group/ society at large who thinks this way. Trying to understand another's perspective is vitally important in this climate but, we have to be careful not to engage is the oppression Olympics because it does negate or delegitimize someone else's experience. If you don't know what it's like, that is okay too.
Every human being on the planet has been discriminated against. Less intelligent, less attractive, handicapped, injured, poor, sick, etc all know how it feels. We need to start connecting and not playing victim. This statement is toxic and disingenuous.
aka we don’t care to really know
I am a foreigner and these massacres hurt me to the core. To think the leaders participated in such carnage!!! I am aghast!!!
Welcome to the good ol U.S. of A. If you want to know about this place, just ask the Native Americans and African Americans, we got all the dirt on em

@@need-to-know- jah kno, star...
What is so tragic is that this was done by "good Christian people" who claim to love Jesus. The bible says that if you don't love your brother who you see everyday, you cannot love God, who you have never seen.
Good Christian people obviously doesn't mean ethical, compassionate, or empathetic people.
@@richardkatz8713 You hit the nail right on its head.
That's beautiful!! Where in The Bible can this be found? I have only read to 2 Chronicles so far so I have a ways to go before I finish it.
@@xbrandi12345x Hello Brandi....this is found in 1 John 4:20. The actual verse reads as follows (NIV version): "Whoever claims to love God yet hates his brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother or sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen."
By definition a Christian is a Heathen!
Race riot? No. A massacre.
Well done. *applauding
You told our history beautifully and the history of you son. Thank you
And This is why "some" people don't want critical race theory taught
No! The key word is theory. Change that to facts and we might agree on the subject.
And your point 🙄 facts are facts
Exactly!
@@ricklodestein1101 "Critical race facts" lol. You obviously have no idea what the word "theory" refers to in the context of academia. Of course, critical race theory, much to the dismay of conservatives, is based in historical fact, but I'm going to assume your ability to examine society and history from a sociological perspective is limited.
@@ricklodestein1101 Let's try teaching ALL the FACTS of American History!
How about We as a Country, try teaching the REAL Truth for a few Generations and see how that works out for US.......Because Lying about our History.....Hasn't worked out so great for US, as a United Country!
When were close to the finish line, they move the finish line. Amerikkka
Or they completely lie about the fact that there is a race being ran at all!!!
This is the story and the history of America ingrained racial history in this country. This country was built on racism and it is why today in May 2021 Mitch McConnell leader of senate republican party openly campaigns to stop any teaching about racism in regards to people of color in this country. If you don't acknowledged it, it didn't happen. Out of sight, out of mind.
They are moving it again..... have you heard recently in the news when most CEOS say “I don’t understand why people are focusing on college. College is not important. And you don’t need it to be successful.” The goal line is being moved. The wealthy is focusing on entrepreneurship.
@@joannebaker4925 Not out of sight out of mind more like it is still useful to exploit.

Any Italian's involved? Irish? German? Explain the definition of "white".
Wow! I never thought about how “race riots” technically involved massacres. We need to tell ALL of the events of history. At the end of the day, we as human beings have to be open to the experiences of others. Just because racism isn’t happening to you doesn’t make others experience with it invalid or imagined.
I know, right? It’s called “EMPATHY”❣️
The true numbers are not known...... it was a tragedy...
It was a slaughter...
It is so sad what jealousy can create. It is beyond prejudice. Pure jealousy. Self contained town, and no one is depending in the majority. So what was the problem?
Jealousy! That's problem and boy can it consume.
They hate to know they are NOT the only humans who walk the planet.
Jealousy mixed with racial resentment, to be more precise. Jealousy is a pretty common human emotion, but in normal circumstances it can be controlled. When you throw in a sense of racial entitlement or superiority, however, jealousy is allowed to rage unchecked as a way of "righting" the situation.
It's not jealousy, it's an ancient Biblical hate. One that GOD/YAH will deal with on the Day of the LORD. History is not the only lie or cover-up of truths, even the church won't tell the truth and they know it, they're hiding it. But, it's written in the Bible for all to read. Just like the Bible tells us that in the end, hidden truths will come out and knowledge will increase, it also tells us the punishment for those who did and hid their evils. You can find that in Joel Chapter 3. It's a short chapter and easy to understand.
@Valerie Blount, "Self contained town, and no one is depending in the majority. So what was the problem?" They weren't depended on any one for a living that was the problem.

I know Sarah Page may not have had any rights back in those days either but i wonder if she ever told her side of the story to anyone.
After all of the killing and burning, Sara who had moved away told them she did not want to press charges.

Justice AND forgiveness stand shoulder to shoulder. Justice demands some form of reparations. Forgiveness is the letting go of persistent ill will with its revenge, retaliation and retribution fantasies. Dr. Robert Enright’s “Forgiveness is a Choice” is the gold standard of evidence-based forgiveness practice. He is also on RUclips. Let’s move forward in 2021 and not get stuck in resentment.
How do you forgive those that want no forgiveness or think they did no wrong?

CANDICE OWENS RUCKUS will somehow convince the right that this never happened
It happened, but this story continues to be completely embellished. B Wall Street was a functioning neighborhood with hard-working people but most of the people were by no means affluent. The 19 year old accused of attempted assault never claimed to trip and fall in the elevator. He attacked the 17 year old girl after the elevator doors were closed and she screamed and opened the door with scratches on her face and hands. He ran away. The store keeper did not automatically call the cops and make a false accusation. Shopkeepers heard the girl scream and came to see if she needed help. The police were called after she told them what happened to her. The riot started with armed Bs killing around 10 Ws. The majority of the city was W and in response about 30 Bs were killed. The claim that at least 300 Bs were killed is completely made up, there is no evidence for it and these r@ce grifters are out there excavating Tulsa right now hoping to find b0dies to inflate the numbers. All in the service of inflating grievances. This all started with a B 19 year old assaulting a W 17 year old and then armed Bs killed about 10 Ws. This was insane and the response was obviously insane as well, but the condescending false narratives that treat a functioning B district as if it was the source of envy and jealousy reveals the big0try of low expectations and the desire to inflate the number of b0dies shows the perverse incentive of people who benefit from creating divisions in society by inflaming tensions with this obviously false narrative that W people are all bad and B people are all good. The truth is always much more nuanced and in the case of Tulsa it’s not just more nuanced, it’s completely different than this revisionist propaganda. I’m curious to hear if Candace will or has ever commented on this cuz it would be a prime example of the type of lies and false narratives used to perpetuate a victim-complex in her community that she often speaks against.

@Margaret Kpeh It took me 0 seconds to know u are lying. Due to the fact my Great-Great Grandfather loss everything including his life. Please go have many seats.
That prom story got me. 🥺
Thank you for sharing this, I learned about the Tulsa massacre along with the Tuskegee experiment for the first time a few years ago, it shocked me although it didn’t surprised me. These incidents need to be shared, there’s a lot of people in this country that doesn’t know about this, can you imagine any German citizen not knowing about the atrocities of the 3rd reich?
Google Wilmington North Carolina
That's powerful!!
This story is when I realize how much we never learned in American history.
Thanks too your ANCESTORS but your day is coming 👹
why is this catlady lying about this event?
A MASTERPIECE!
Powerful!
It had nothing to do with race, that is the cover story. Its about what it has always been: jealousy, envy, pride, HATE!
And race
German here: I can only say that remembering and facing your past is painful - and healing.
Let historians do their work and teach what they have found out.
By doing so you can at least have a clear picture of what happened.
Do not gloss over things or avoid uncomfortable truths. It will not hurt you, it will only hurt your feelings. And whoever did horriible things 100 years ago is mostly dead now. So, putting these to trial is not possible anymore.
What happened in Germany between 1933 - 1945 is by no way comparable to the Tulsa Massacre or any other event in US history.
The only comparable thing perhaps is, that the generation who was responsible back then tried to forget everything and wanted "to get over it".
You can have a better understanding of what you are today if you remember.
Because what we are today is because of what our ancestors did in the past. Simple as that.
But be aware: there are lots of people who do not want to remember. They either do not want to be exposed or want their peace of mind to be disturbed. Those will find any reason not to support remembering and facing the past.
Every victim has the right to be remembered.
Every deed has to be remembered and we all have to face what the past was.
Simple as that.
Another lesson to me is also important:
What is broken can be repaired. You cannot make things undone. But you can repair a society to a certain extent.
By remembering you realize what was wrong in the past and what needs to be adressed today.
Can we "learn" from the past? To a certain extent - yes.
But this is an ongoing task.
Awesome!
This is a very important Sad story that needs to be told… change! Awareness!
@secondson64 i like your style
Amerikkka the beautiful...
How can anyone give this a "thumbs down" -
Angry white people who do not want to look at the reality that America is built on racism.
😢 Thank you
"As long as the hunt is told from the point of view of the Hunter, the Lion will always be the villain."
Blessing, but your lifetime and the next generation couldn't learn enough, especially when it's forced HIDDEN "HIS STORY"
Children armed and shooting. This is the definition of tribalism.
Fast forward a century later, the beat goes on..........
Yea Africa is full of soldiers children
Amazing presentation, thank you!
One would have to truly see another before being moved to have eyes of compassion. If an individual is choosing to not understand the multiple atrocities that took place that affected African Americans were crippled financially, red lined disenfranchised in regards to housing and economical opportunities. We pay reparations to everyone even countries that we have bombed to help them rebuild but it is only when it comes to African descendants that we question where is the money coming from and who is going to pay it when the majority are the only ones to have benefited from the destruction of others. Native American, Asians who helped to build the railroads along with poor with the indigenous of all cultures. It’s much more difficult to pull yourself up by the boot straps when the boots (assets) have been utterly annihilated. Sending my love and peace and for every seed sown we all shall reap even if no is around to witness. Thank you for sharing as many others seek to reveal the facts and not just what makes us feel comfortable because the shaping of America is one founded on blood and greed no matter the cost.
And that ladies, gents and nongendered, is an ALLY. 💯
