Politics Corner, May 31st, Memorial Day

 

Via National Park Service


Today was Memorial Day and that's important even though we mostly use it as an excuse to drink beer and have cookouts. This year is different. This year it is also the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre. If you watched the Watchmen series you've gotten an introduction. What happened was worse than you saw and had deeper repercussions.


Here is a local take on it. Here is a current journalistic view. And lastly an in-depth account. [Tulsa Historical Society and Museum][Associated Press][Wikipedia]
