U.S. Marks 100th Anniversary of Tulsa Race Massacre

A hundred years ago on May 31st, the US city of Tulsa saw one of the biggest race massacres in American history. Greenwood, known as the black wall street, was one of the most prosperous predominantly black areas in all of America. But in May 1921, racial violence broke out - and by the next day, an estimated three hundred black people had been killed - with the district burned and devastated beyond recognition. As we explore one of the worst periods in the history of American race relations, Charles Aniagolu speaks to Anneliese Bruner, the relative of Mary E. Parrish who survived the massacre and documented the day's extraordinary events. Subscribe to our Channel for high profile interviews.
