Jamestown bearing a cargo of twenty to thirty enslaved people from Africa. Their arrival
inaugurated a barbaric and unprecedented system of chattel slavery that would last for
the next 250 years. This is sometimes referred to as the country's original sin, but it is
more than that: It is the country's very origin. The 1619 Project tells this new origin story,

legacy of Greenwood -- Afterword. "In the early morning of June 1, 1921, a white mob
marched across the train tracks in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and into its predominantly Black
Greenwood District--a thriving, affluent neighborhood known as America's Black Wall
Street. They brought with them firearms, gasoline, and explosives. In a few short hours,
they'd razed thirty-five square blocks to the ground, leaving hundreds dead. The Tulsa
Race Massacre is one of the most devastating acts of racial violence in US history. But
how did it come to pass? What exactly happened? And why are the events unknown to
so many of us today? These are the questions that award-winning author Brandy
Colbert seeks to answer in this unflinching nonfiction account of the Tulsa Race
Massacre. In examining the tension that was brought to a boil by many factors--white
resentment of Black economic and political advancement, the resurgence of white
supremacist groups, the tone and perspective of the media, and more--a portrait is
drawn of an event singular in its devastation, but not in its kind. It is part of a legacy of
white violence that can be traced from our country's earliest days through
Reconstruction, the Civil Rights movement in the mid-twentieth century, and the fight for
justice and accountability Black Americans still face today. The Tulsa Race Massacre
has long failed to fit into the story Americans like to tell themselves about the history of
their country. This book, ambitious and intimate in turn, explores the ways in which the
story of the Tulsa Race Massacre is the story of America--and by showing us who we
are, points to a way forward"--From the publisher's web site.
