In 1921, Tulsa, Oklahoma’s Greenwood District, known as Black Wall Street, was one of the most prosperous African-American communities in the United States. But on May 31 of that year, the Tulsa Tribune reported that a black man, Dick Rowland, attempted to rape a white woman, Sarah Page. Whites in the area refused to wait for the investigative process to play out, sparking two days of unprecedented racial violence. Thirty-five city blocks went up in flames, 300 people died, and 800 were injured. Defense of white female virtue was the expressed motivation for the collective racial violence.

Accounts vary on what happened between Page and Rowland in the elevator of the Drexel Building. Yet as a result of the Tulsa Tribune’s racially inflammatory report, black and white armed mobs arrived at the courthouse. Scuffles broke out, and shots were fired. Since the blacks were outnumbered, they headed back to Greenwood. But the enraged whites were not far behind, looting and burning businesses and homes along the way

 
Stupid. Unintelligent. Senselessly, good Christian ******* slave gesture. Foolish. Representative of the magnitude of obliviousness Black people have when it comes to what white people think about you simply because of your fucking skin color.

You want to talk about protecting Black women? As a man, I wouldn't risk my life protecting something as idiotic as that.

Ikr I’d be like somebody toss me a bat!
 
It can happen...if we got jelly chokers and leggings with lace on the end, surely we can do the same for this.

If that particular style were to come back, I will always refer to you as the eternal optimist. Not a bad title. :D

Now I do wish the desire to dress as apposed to the present day returned. Back then people had a sense of style and pride.
 
From looking at those hair styles in Rwanda 100 years ago it seems certain type of spirits was wrestling us down in the past past that, and now. It is that that pulls us away from being natural. It is also that that hid our real technology as well as our true identity and natural powers.
