Beulah Lane Keenan Smith was just 13 when the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre shattered her dream of becoming a teacher. “That riot cheated us out of childhood innocence.” She never finished school, but never stopped serving her community. #BlackWallStreet #GreenwoodLegacy #tulsa

Clarence Bruner was a teen bellhop in booming oil-town Tulsa. “Hotels, restaurants, taxis, we all made good money. And then came the riot.” The 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre destroyed Black Wall Street, but Clarence’s story reminds us: resilience runs deep. #TulsaRaceMassacre

On May 31, we reflect on the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, a brutal attack that destroyed Black Wall Street and claimed hundreds of Black lives. We remember. And we carry forward Greenwood’s legacy of resilience. #TulsaRaceMassacre #BlackWallStreet #GreenwoodStrong

We need your help, Tulsa. This face has been preserved in our archives but his name, his story, and his legacy remain a mystery. Do you recognize him? Help us uncover who he is and honor his place in Greenwood's history. #greenwood #tulsahistory #blackwallstreet
