Description
<p>This episode of the podcast is a look into the Tulsa Race Massacre and Juneteenth. I took a few weeks away from the podcast so I could read, learn, and come back to the podcast with a better knowledge of events that impacted the Black communities in the US and the world.</p>
<p>A few weeks before this episode aired, Trump caused a furor over his decision to hold a rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma on June 19. At the time, I didn't understand why there was an outcry (other than holding a rally during the global pandemic), but I soon learned about the Tulsa Race Massacre and Juneteenth - dates and events that I'd <em>never</em> learned in school.</p>
<p>I started this podcast to learn about and share events, people, and places that may have been footnotes in our history books and history classes. Or in this case, <em>left out entirely</em>. This episode dives into the events of the Tulsa Race Massacre, and why June 19th is such an important date.</p>
