Historians say crime was rife due to the Tulsa oil field discovery bringing lots of money and opportunity in. Pretty common dynamic. In this environment, Greenwood had about 200 business to 10,000 people. The "favella" nature of it is noted. Most of the inhabitants were service workers in Tulsa proper. Its prosperity has always been overstated, simply because it's black. There were some middle class, a few rich, and a lot of poor. It's a neat thing that happened, but it wasn't quite the massive achievement people like to portray it as.
I don't give a shit about a black "man". Individuals should be judged individually, and the majority are fine of any race. It's the black "group" thing that matters. There are a lot of good black people, but there is a disproportionate tendency for violence. You won't really find it in the top decile, but it's in the demographic. Genetics explain a lot more than culture. Reduced functioning MAOA repeat allele variants prevalent in black populations not only fit the correlation, but the causation, due to the nature of the MAO-A enzyme.
