Black Wall Street Station Unisex Hoodie
from $42.00
Popularly known as America's "Black Wall Street", Greenwood was a historic freedom colony in Tulsa, Oklahoma. During the early 20th century, Black Wall Street was one of the most prominent concentrations of African-American businesses in the United States. It was burned to the ground in the Tulsa race massacre of 1921, in which white residents attacked the area. Between 75 and 300 people, mostly black, were killed, hundreds more were injured, and 5,000 people were left homeless. The massacre was one of the largest in the history of U.S. race relations, destroying the once-thriving Greenwood community.
Within ten years of the massacre, surviving residents who chose to remain in Tulsa rebuilt much of the district. They accomplished this despite the opposition of many white Tulsa political and business leaders and punitive rezoning laws enacted to prevent reconstruction. It continued as a vital black community until segregation was overturned by the federal government during the 1950s and 1960s.
