I realize that right up there is a DOJ report, but I read this article in about 2020 and found it at the time to be one of the most horrifyingly complete accounts of what happened that I'd seen.
NOW TEACH IT IN SCHOOLS SO WE ALL KNOW WHO YOU REALLY ARE
In Oklahoma? With Trump in the White House?
Good luck with that. It took an HBO superhero series for most people in Tulsa to learn about it.
Would this report help Lessie Benningfield Randle and Viola Fletcher, the only two living survivors of the massacre, with their lawsuit that was thrown out of the Oklahoma Supreme Court last June?
the only two living survivors of the massacre
That are aware of it. We have no idea how many infants were displaced or what happened to them.
One would hope so, but it IS Oklahoma..
Americans: “Did the police use the Tulsa massacre as an excuse to murder black people?”
DOJ: “We’ll investigate it.”
Americans: “Well?”
DOJ: “Nope.”
Americans: “Are you sure?”
DOJ: “Sure.”
Americans: “Show us your findings.”
DOJ: “We can’t do that.”
Americans: “Are you hiding something?”
DOJ: “Nope.”
2025
DOJ: “Okay, yeah, the police used the Tulsa Massacre as an excuse to murder black people.”
Americans: “Do something about it!”
DOJ: “But that was 100 years ago, the damage is done.”
This is what Israel is trying to do with Palestine, too lol.
What do you mean "trying"?
In other words, expect Special Counsel Jack Smith's report to stay hidden for the next hundred years.
Being released wouldn't change anything. Mueller's report was released and nothing meaningful happened. We're significantly farther down the fascist path now too. I expect even less will happen when Smith's report is eventually released.
mueller's investigation was neutered by donvict before it even began.
Oh, well if the law said I could do it I guess that means it’s okay 🙄
Just tie it up in the court system for a hundred years.
Not only ok, it means you should do it
Embarrassing.
DOJ is a piece of shit.
