Support the 1921 survivors and descendants in their fight for justice and reparations—support Project Greenwood
Mayor Nichols - the Office of the City of Tulsa
Tulsa’s historic Greenwood District—once known as “Black Wall Street”—was more than a neighborhood. It represented Black excellence, economic independence, self-determination, and communal resilience. When a mob destroyed Greenwood in 1921, it decimated the foundation of generational wealth for countless Black families, took the lives of loved ones, and permanently altered Black America.
Yet for far too long, the federal, state, and local governments failed to provide any reparations. Even as the 9/11, the Oklahoma City Bombing and other tragedies prompted swift, wide-reaching governmental assistance, the survivors and descendants of the Tulsa Race Massacre have been repeatedly denied support. This inaction has allowed deep wounds to linger—harm still carried by families who deserve every chance to rebuild and reclaim what was lost.
