On May 31, 1921, the all-Black Greenwood District of Tulsa, Oklahoma was a thriving city within a city — a symbol of pride, success and wealth. The next morning, it was ashes. What happened remained a secret to many for almost a century.
From The HISTORY® Channel and WNYC Studios is Blindspot: Tulsa Burning, a new podcast about a community set on fire and the scars that remain 100 years later.
Over six episodes from May 28-July 2, 2021, reporter and producer KalaLea will take us into the life of this remarkable 35 blocks of Tulsa through the stories of people who lived there. This is a story of racism laid plain, of complicity — by the police and other city officials — and the enduring legacy of white supremacy.
Voices featured in this trailer include: KalaLea, Chief Eguwale Amusan, Quraysh Ali Lansana, Raven Majia Williams, Dr. Tiffany Crutcher, Victor Luckerson and Eli Grayson.
The first episode is out on May 28, 2021. Subscribe now: blindspotpodcast.org
