The massacre had been sparked by reports that a 19-year-old Black man had allegedly offended a 17-year-old white female elevator attendant. The murky incident got blown out of proportion by inflammatory newspaper accounts.

Allegedly offended= Allegedly raped. Never mind the armed black men that showed up at the court and started the riots.

In addition to the loss of life, there was more than $1 million in property losses that would amount to more than $20 million today. Before the massacre, the Greenwood district was considered one of the most affluent all-Black communities in the country, a mecca for African American culture, business and prosperity.

So the most affluent black community in existence couldn’t rebuild over 20 million in damages by current standards, but the billions caused by “peaceful protests” is a-ok right?

This entire story screams bullshit, Greenwood has always been treated as the Atlantis of black people, yet the massively thriving economy couldn’t recover. Over ten thousand people homeless from 1125 homes. So there were about 9 people per home on average, totally sounds like a thriving economy.

Allegedly offended= Allegedly raped.

Not really, allegedly assaulted. As in: allegedly grabbed her arm. The media sensationalized the whole thing.

The alleged rape was the account of a black woman’s memoir. Which shows that the media lies was even taken as fact by black bystanders.
