@KosherSoul Good idea since so many people don't know the Civil Rights Movement was far from peaceful. Some have a whitewashed idea of what happened when cops & white citizens turned violent against peaceful protesters. History is repeating.

@KosherSoul The Colfax Massacre and U.S. v Cruikshank
@KosherSoul WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, MASSACRE (1898)
For over 100 years, powers in Wilmington tried to erase the massacre from its history. Until 2000, when “the General Assembly established the 1898 Wilmington Race Riot Commission to develop a historical record.

@KosherSoul ATLANTA MASSACRE (1906)
On September 22, 1906, Atlanta newspapers reported 4 white women alleged they were assaulted by Black men. This was a lie. In reality, whites were threatened by upwardly mobile Black communities in Atlanta youtube.com/watch?v=Khs0xU…

Blacks outnumbered whites 10 to 1 & demanded economic justice. Whites convinced themselves there was a threat of a "Black insurrection” and reacted with violence. Black men who were forced to confess were exonerated.

@KosherSoul Tulsa Massacre 1921
A white mob destroyed an American neighborhood called “Black Wall Street,” murdering an estimated 300 people in Tulsa, Oklahoma. That incident — known as the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre — has been largely left out of US history books.
