    Reverend Solomon Sir Jones documented African-American life, culture, and success in Oklahoma a few years after the Tulsa Race Riots. His films demonstrate the nuance and diversity of the Black community during the period. His camera captures children, deacons, young professionals, homemakers, businessmen, community leaders, landowners, field workers, students, and neighbors. Some of his subjects included formerly enslaved men and women and their descendants who built these thriving towns. Together, these communities worked, worshiped, played celebrated, loved and mourned together. Jones takes considerable care to illustrate how they built something special - self-sustaining and self-determined societies.

    Genesis 15
    12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
    13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; 1619 - 2019 Jacob's trouble~ Jeremiah 30
    (house-bill H.R.1242)
    14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.

      They will be taken to a strange land on ships and will serve as bondsmen and bonds women, for 400 years. After which they will leave with great substance and I will judge the nation that afflicted them.

      Yes after the Tulsa riots. This was in 1925. Watch Uncle Tom II for more footage going into the 1940s.

    Those beautiful people had oil in their back yards. America could have been even richer today, if they were not kept down. Our people came with skills and knowledge from Africa.
