    Tulsa Mayor Monroe Nichols on Sunday unveiled a $105 million reparations plan for the descendants of the Tulsa race massacre -- the deadly 1921 attack by a white mob on the Oklahoma city's Greenwood section, a thriving Black neighborhood known as "Black Wall Street."

    The attack, which occurred May 31 and June 1, 1921, killed hundreds of people and left homes and businesses destroyed.

    In September 2024, the DOJ started the first federal review of the Tulsa Race massacre -- a move that the living survivors and the descendents of the victims praised at the time.

    Following a four-month probe, the DOJ released a 126-page report on Jan. 17. According to the report, the two-day raid killed 300 Black residents and destroyed their businesses was a "coordinated, military-style attack" conducted by a white mob of over 10,000 people.

    In addition to the murders and property destruction, victims' money and personal property were stolen, and they were not provided with any aid, the report said.

    this is a step in the right direction, but still not nearly enough to undo this atrocity…and there were many more race riots just like this across the country
