1. The Myth of Black Wall Street

Reclaimed & Rewritten

Dec 7 2021 • 30 mins

Welcome to Reclaimed and Rewritten, a new podcast by gal-dem uncovering and telling the whole truth of our complicated histories. In our first season, Clarkisha Kent will be exploring the myths and realities of the 1921 Tulsa Massacre that decimated the town’s thriving black community. Speaking with journalists and historians in this first episode, Clarkisha investigates how Tulsa’s famed ‘Deep Greenwood’ community was created and thrived beyond economic success, and how it became the target of white supremacist rage and envy.
