Black Agenda Radio · Tulsa Massacre Instigated by White Supremacist Media

The Oklahoma Supreme Court dismissed a lawsuit that argued that the remaining survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Massacre should be compensated by that city, a blow to their ongoing fight for reparations more than 100 years after the attack. We are joined by Joe Torres, Senior Advisor, Reparative Policy and Programs at Free Press, and also a co-founder of the Media 2070 project. He will discuss the media’s role in the Tulsa massacre. He joins us from Silver Spring, Maryland.
