The Tulsa Race Massacre: The Department of Justice Review and Evaluation - Paperback
by Department of Justice (Author)
The full, unexpurgated Department of Justice report on the investigation into the events previously known as the "Tulsa Race Riots" -- and the revelation of the government's own white washing of the massacre that actually took place, an attack "so systematic and coordinated that it transcended mere mob violence. . ."
"The Tulsa Race Massacre stands out as a civil rights crime unique in its magnitude, barbarity, racist hostility and its utter annihilation of a thriving Black community. In 1921, white Tulsans murdered hundreds of residents of Greenwood, burned their homes and churches, looted their belongings and locked the survivors in internment camps. Until this day, the justice department has not spoken publicly about this race massacre or officially accounted for the horrific events that transpired in Tulsa. This report breaks that silence by rigorous examination and a full accounting of one of the darkest episodes of our nation's past. This report lays bare new information and shows that the massacre was the result not of uncontrolled mob violence, but of a coordinated, military-style attack on Greenwood." -- from a Department of Justice statement upon release of the reportThe United States Department of Justice is a department of the executive branch of the federal government.
