As a Tulsa resident I'm ok with it if it means more downtown development and ability to move north of Downtown and develop. Community already had plans on how to develop that land as they acquired grants going forward. Would love to see them be able to execute on it with funding.
They just found the mass grave under a park a year or two back. Firebombed the Black community with crop dusters and burned it down. Then the same folks perpetrating this atrocity went back to being in charge and helped to further ensure the community was never rebuilt. No one ever charged with any crime around it. If anyone deserves reparations it's that community and their descendants.

Reparations have been paid in full X10
Not in this case. The black people in Tulsa got absolutely fricked by this and were rewarded with the entire thing being buried for many years. If reparations were ever going to be a thing, this is a situation where it would be warranted.

Who do they pay?

As if the trillions of dollars from LBJ's "Great Society" and "War on Poverty," wasn't enough reparations!

No they didn’t.
You liberals have a world view that’s shaped on lies.

The City of Tulsa and archaeological teams continue to investigate, with community and descendant involvement. As of June 2025, no graves have been officially confirmed as massacre victims, but the search persists, driven by accounts suggesting multiple mass burial sites.
No graves have ever been found linked to this massacre.

Yeah. I mean Detroit was once thriving too.
In 1960 Detroit had the highest per capita income of any city in America. They have had straight Democrat mayors since 1962. Not a republican to point the finger to.

Does the new mayor have buddies that own liquor stores. They're going to make bank.

Some of the reports are that 36 black people were killed and 13-15 whites.
No concrete evidence on any numbers. No graves found.
No one knows who fired the shot at the courthouse.
Just a lot of nothing for you to be so confident you knew what went down.

Of course you don’t! That’s why you should donate to whatever charities you want and leave taxpayers out of reparation schemes.

Bribery. Nothing less.

Any white man who thinks this is ok gets pegged by their wife at home. (Or their wife’s special friend). What an embarrassment in life.

Over 100 years later. Civil Rights legislation. The “War on Poverty.” Affirmative action. DEI. And now millions more in extortion from individuals who have no connection to anything that happened a century ago. It will never end until society just says NO. Do you not understand yet?

Is this being funded by the City of Tulsa taxpayers?
Posted on 6/2/25 at 12:09 am to BowDownToLSU
I'm all for it, as long as he isn't using federal funds for it. He can use all of the state and city funds he can muster.

Oh, so just another racist black politician gettin ready to scam his brothas and sistas at the taxpayers dime, and black people pay taxes too

$100M stretches out how many trips to Africa for a mayor and his cabinet?

The fatigue is real as taxpayers have seen this same tired act before.
Ironically, with the last two words in the article - “ financial amends” - is where they should have started as that is what it is always about…..handouts or “community” investments accompanied by politicians getting their share as well.
Also, must have a few cronies to get in on the action by hiring an “executive director and a board of managers” to develop the details of the plan, receive the funds, somehow lose account of the funds, etc.
104 years after this alleged “massacre” and Tulsa has never figured out how to overcome the woes of the Greenwood District and now reparations represent the only path forward.
None of the above even digs into the veracity or actual extent of the alleged massacre with mass graves that have never been located.
