YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe U.S. Department of Justice released a new report Friday on the Tulsa Race Massacre more than 100 years after publishing its first account.
Unlike the department's first report issued in June 1921, the latest report asserted that the white mob's "opportunistic violence became systematic" and stemmed from racial bias.
The report said Tulsa police deputized hundreds of white residents for the massacre and detained Black residents in makeshift camps.
Kristen Clarke, the Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division, announced the finding early today.
The report does identify by name some of the alleged lead perpetrators of the massacre. These include Claud "Yellow Hammer" Cranfield, a suspect in a previous lynching of a Black man, and Tulsa police Captain George Blaine, a hardware store owner accused of breaking in and dealing out arms.
