I’m glad blacks are starting to realize it’s all about the money and power and not trying to be validated and accepted by people who’ve never liked you!!! We need banks, hospitals, schools, tailor shops, construction companies, and etc.
do you know why tulsa got burned down?
@@radioblitz1494 They were jealous of all the black wealth in the Greenwood community. It was a thriving black community, it was worth around $5 million. Booker T. Washington called it "Black Wallstreet".
@@lashonewofford3366 5million in our time or 5 million during those times? and i dont know about jealous sense you know, we dont know what they were thinking, and other things but what i think is people need to learn history but the current people are not learning they are using it to push narratives and push the country apart and we allow media, left to use us. they make everything seem worse then it is. i honestly think people need to stop using the past as justifications a lot of things have changed dramatically sense 1776 and even 30 to 40 years ago but we still treat white people like shit honestly, ive seen more minorities being racist in the past 2 years then ive seen white people being racist in the past 10 years but dont get me wrong i think racism should not be happening but you cant get rid of racisms that's impossible but acting like its massive issue or acting like every single thing is racist is foolish. in our current system everyone has the same opportunity's the question is how hard do people wanna work for it or make the next generation better but yeah ... sadly i really dont think its going to get better ... i truly think racism is going to get bad like the 1900s all over again..at the rate our country going
@@lashonewofford3366 no, Tulsa got burned down not because of jealousy it was because of revenge for black mob and white mob meeting and 10 whites dies vs 2 blacks (honestly neither mob should of even been their) then after that the mob wanted revenge so they burn down Tulsa 39 people in total died whites and blacks but their are estimates all the way up to 300 people dying
@@lashonewofford3366 (This is completely separate from Tulsa ) I think its very racist to actually care what race the owner is and taking money out of the bank because its not black owned is basically segregations? am i wrong?
Those who fail to remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
Yea and those who remember it wrong just make the future worse for it!
@@kevinm3751 The Democrat's don't want people to know these stories.
@@earlofmar7987 When you look at it from a political lens you are just as guilty for embracing the past and kicking the can down the road. For, those who never took the time to wonder and explore us and bring back the empowerment that allowed us to rise up out of slavery independently you are holding us back. To become independent again is impossible with a divided mindset.
For those to embrace the future and make the necessary sacrifices along the journey will see the promised land for generations to come. Do not let yesterday keep you pessimistic but allow tomorrow the space to be optimistic.
@@peanut2us You sir have a good post. But your talking to a descendant of people that fought against slavery for generations. My family fought in the Revolutionary War. I'm Scottish/Norwegian descent. The Scot's, had been taken into slavery for 1000 years. So they hated slavery. Our laws & our Constitution were fashioned in the 13 Colonies from Scotland's. Everything that they endured, from England, is in our Constitution. The Norwegian side, were Quaker Abolitionist Ministers, that helped smuggled slaves to Indiana. Had another Scottish Grt. Grt. Uncle, who was Lincoln's, Sec of War. His name was Alan Pinkerton. People died in that Civil War, to give black men & women their freedom. Your future is up to you at this point. Just like all the rest of us. But there are some in this country right now, that mean to do us harm and take away our freedoms. Same ole enemy my family has been fighting for thousands of years.
In Tulsa, Black people, of which some were armed, gathered to prevent the supposed lynching of an accused black man. At the jail, the sheriff persuaded the crowd to leave when an unknown shot was fired. A fight ensued where 10 white people and 2 black people were killed. After that the city was overrun by white rioter violence. They killed men and burned and looted stores and homes. This left between 30 and 300 dead, 1,400 homes destroyed, the displacement of 10,000 residents, and 800+ injured. In 1996, a nonpartisan commission studied the situation. In 2001, the report showed that the city and white residents both conspired against black citizens.
This story we did not learn until I was a Adult
Same here
I begged to learn about the good things Black people had done for society and the teachers actually got mad at me for it. Called themselves telling my mom on me…they were sadly mistaken lol
I guess we know now who the real model minorities are.
I see some people still want to find something negative to say . Black communities can thrive if the system is fair. This contradicts many white people stereotypes about blacks . Many whites only want to remember african americans as poor and under developed but we thrive when people leave us alone Or support us in business. We need reparations and reconstruction
@@melvinhardy111 reconstruction era was the reason we saw black wealth. The change in presidents led to the cancellation of the reconstruction era and it hasn't been restored since then .
@@melvinhardy111 you speak negativity. Blacks are due reparations because every effort to establish black wealth after the reconstruction era was compromised. And flat out destroyed . Yes african property is affordable and many african americans and european africans are moving back , including me .
Reparations should be paid because the notion that was created by white scientist and lawmakers claiming blacks were half human and should be held as property known as chattel is beneath evil. These terms were made up without logic . The collateral damage this pseudo science created led to numerous family members being abused , split apart, killed, hung , raped, working without pay for over 300 years .
Greenwood tulsa oklahoma wasn't built with the help of whites . It was built by oil money. The law then was segregation so whites couldn't nor wouldn't patron black businesses
@@melvinhardy111 I never claimed to speak for all blacks . Whites meanwhile have received reparations 3 times , first with the 40 acres and a mule , emancipation by freeing their slaves and fha homes that were given at a low price and quadrupled in profit as time when on . The projects use to be housing for whites . Then the government built vast suburbs where whites could build wealth . Blacks deserve these same programs .
@@TheTrill334 Reconstruction only lasted about a decade with political backlash.
@@JK-gu3tl bit only lasted a decade because at that time a new racist president was elected president and he hated the progress of reconstruction
Can you imagine if we were allowed to own our own NBA teams, NFL teams, MLB teams, or any other sports teams, that's how generational wealth is created passed on from generation to generation but we were never given that chance brought here as slaves and kept down ever since even till today in 2022
I'm from Richmond and the Maggie Walker house is owned by the national park service which means its free and I went to all (mostly) black city schools and we NEVER went there for field trips. I was an adult when I went.
I'm so glad to hear this about our community and we need to make a difference to know and learn what can be achieved with education of our history
I'm 40 and I love learning something I never heard or knew everyday.
Never vote for a Dem Liberal, they have destroyed our country and worked to destroy the Black American race. And still do. It was in something called the Underwriting Manual of the Fed Housing Administration, which said that "incompatible racial groups should not be permitted to live in the same communities." Meaning that loans to African-Americans could not be insured
So evil what has been done to our people here in America
It's still going on 2023 black men going missing regularly black men killing their baby moms regularly white supremacy keep finding all the ways ro wipe out black America
This video brought tears of joy to my spirit. I am a Combat Vet, disconnected from my family, and at a point was homeless. I'm now a barber and am currently for my own edification studing economics. The Rise, Prosperity, Order, and Tank of Black Wall Street has been placed before to exam and learn. The pioneers of industry shall educate inspire and cause for innovation in this day and time. My portfolio although small it has expansion potential. My education although not received from any institution it is gained by the most high recognized economists and investor to date, Dr. Thomas Sowell, Ray Dalio, Jim Roger, Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, Robert Kiyosaki just to name a few.
Those that created this network of capitalism within minority community shall not have died in vain. For KNOWLEDGE is the KEY to PROSPERITY which is the ultimate goal of LIFE.
How can you dislike this video ? I’m amazed !
Probably some white boys being angry that they got reminded of thier history.
@@royalanempire2965 ikr like u mad bro
You know who these people possibly can be. These can only be the the people benefitting from others oppression. AKA people of not African Descent.☑️
Exactly.. we know who disliked though..
No I think it has more to do with it the Tulsa burnings happened from the Democratic party and not the Republican party and you guys are equating all white people to the same party just buy flip Italy sang white people but it wasn't just white people it was white Democrats like Joe Biden
BLACK PEOPLE! Please Stop Calling Tulsa Oklahoma And What Happened There, "Black Wall Street." It wasn't the first Black Wall Street, or the last Black Wall Street!
It’s discouraging because to me it seems we will never get back to a time where black people are truly prosperous as a whole.
I feel the same way
Thank you for sharing this with me. I never heard of this before. 😇
We need to come together to get this back.
No hood culture there too. Hood culture brings crime and gangs.
Never gonna happen. Black people hate seeing each other succeed
@@Aztec82 hate to say it but it's true
Democrats, will not let you! they run the ghetto cities , wonder why they don't want parents to have a school of choice! Watch black conservative! You will learned alot about the dark side of democrats!
Very Informative! 👍🏾
Yo I am from the UK , I have never heard about this, this is a excellent video, I love seeing those old photo's
We were here BEFORE COLUMBUS and Before Eskimos crossed the Behring Strait. We are the Natives and the Gov let their racist bulldogs burn Black Wall Street to the ground. Read "Black Britons", mate. We were in Europe BEFORE euROPEans too
Maggie Walker was awesome I mean, complete awesome on what she achieved and what she has done. But if you’re going to tell a story about the first black renaissance which is Richmond Virginia you got to go before. You got to give respect to all the other black businesses and black banks that was doing things before or during Miss Maggie Walker. Also what makes Maggie Walker so awesome because when white America was changing new laws in tax laws to put a strain on progressive black businesses the beautiful thing about Maggie Walker she brought all those black banks and businesses together and named those black banks consolidated bank. How I know, is because, went to visit the museum in Richmond and sit down for a 2 1/2 hour documentary on the first black Renaissance which was Richmond Virginia help aggressive they were in producing great businesses out there. Specific area in Richmond Virginia was called on the Duece. It’s where they have thriving black businesses insurance companies shoeshine companies banks etc. etc. One thing that is great about Maggie Walker that you guys don’t know is that she also was one of the first to create a several floor building mall. Look it up she was awesome
What museum?
This makes me so angry that I'm just now learning about her
EXCELLENT video. Very informative.
I love this story! I love hearing about stories of Black Wall Street!
Dont be misled....there was black wall streets all over america even at the turn of the century but the left has this narrative that we have been held back. I invite you to watch the Uncle Tom documentary right here on youtube and see for yourself. I just finished watching Uncle Tom 2 that just came out and after you watch the first one you will want to watch the second one and see how the black community has been lied to and deceived by the left. Just watch it and decidde for youself, espeiclly if you like Black History
From Tulsa.. the scars are still here. They built a highway through the area and decimated the city. It's disgusting.
There are many important histrionic figures that are not taught in schools. Maggie Lee Walker is not the first or the last, she is one of many that aren’t recognized outside of the state in which things they changed things.
It's up to us to share
Wow I'm 30 years old, and don't know who she is. I never heard of her. I need to do some research. I love history.
Great documentary and i live in Richmond. Didnt know this history.
My mom just turned 79 in may 2021 and she had no idea this happened of course she was not born but even in school the teacher didn’t talk about it and she from the south Louisiana New Orleans and part of Liberty Mississippi only thing she knows that her sister her oldest sister was born in January 1921 i’m so happy to be able to tell my mom as part of our history thank you enjoy this channel
I learned a little about this in the 90s from a fellow soldier while in the military. After watching the special on CBS I have a better understanding and feel horrible for the ancestors of those murdered and survivors. To have city government conspire to ensure they can't even get insurance settlement should hold the town accountable for making this right. Imagine the White people/families who did profit from the genocide and their ancestors who still benefit to this day. Imagine you find out your ancestors were worth what in today's dollars millions and had it stolen from them with documentation of the event. City records show the cover-up started the day after the genocide.
It was also the US government who bombed the community. The government includes law enforcement, national guard, etc.
Don't forget urban renewal that wrecked countless neighboords, same with highways. War on drugs is another example.
PLEASE READ especially if you’re a MINOrITY!!!!.
The Tulsa race massacre.
The Tulsa race massacre happened may 31 1921- June 1st 1921. In which white citizens of the USA proceeded to come into Tulsa a mainly black populated area in the country and terrorize these people. The real reason this happened was because Tulsa was practically its own black self governed/owned town. For reasons unclear members in Tulsa were creating their very own currency note like the US dollar but produced by black bankers!. Imagine that!!? A new paper note belongings to Tulsa made up by mostly the black race. This is Along the lines of Obama as a new first black president but deeper than that. First of all Tulsa was A mainly black majority town. You seeThe Tulsa massacre started over what they said was “ a black man stepping over a white ladys shoe” and other frivolous reasons. that are nothing more than a cover up, and lies to hide the fact that black people were getting into banking!!! And Tulsa had created its own currency system to exchange goods, services and pay the citizens of Tulsa amongst themselves. But it started spreading outside of Tulsa!!
This black money 💴 currency itself was backed by gold and silver! Held at Tulsa bank 🏦 . so that people in Tulsa (who again were mainly black)were exchanging and using it. And it was such a hit it started to be used outside of the area!!!!!Bc at the time the US dollar had already started to lose its value since it was taken off the gold standard. Meant the new black dollar had more value than the US dollar!!!It’s influence was growing and increasing! Spreading outside of just Tulsa!!! . it was as good as gold and it was used to trade between those in Tulsa but also being used outside of it in the U.S!!!!!.
that brings along everything in life with it ! political power! Economic power! Influence !
First off. 1.
-Money ..💰!it is the currency of life “what makes people do things withought having to threaten them to do it! its what people use to exchange goods. It makes the “doorman “want” to hold the door”. Instead of the old ways of “MAKING the doorman HOLD the door”. Money buys the world aka humans.!!
MONEY!!’ Bc the only other way to influence another person to do anything you really want of them is by violence ,force!!
hence why back then it was easier to just have slavery before these inventions of currency ,money, trading and how humans provide “service” were finally tuned to the “right setting”.where the result have been the same since the beginning but in a very different way.
European countries mainly consisting of White people have been in all positions of power with the best jobs and best lives having many “employees” since the earliest of times. Having influence over many other countries using mainly violence,force influence.
Now in today’s world 🌎 it’s done “economically” whoever gots the money tells you what to do right?!! iF a black dollar would have grown and gotten strong to the point of surpassing the US dollar it could of upset the balance of power both economic and then eventually political that the US had over its own country! STOP!!
In basic terms!!!!that would mean the U.S government whom of which the /employees politicians, congress, law enforcement military and the banking system/ wallstreet etc who by “”””””””””random coincidence “”””””””
happen to consist of mainly the white Race¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ...
would slowly lose power because the US dollar would start to be overshadowed by this black dollar. Statistically speaking “we all know know which race generally has the most money in general” well that money the US dollar was beginning to be threatened by this new black owned gold backed dollar. Which would flip life around!!!!!!!
black people as a majority would start becoming rich and wealthy! Buying everything owning land properties “hiring employees”!! ...eventually getting Into positions of power into political into everything but on a large majority scale. In basic terms let’s just say the world would be “ a white doorman holding the door for a casual black man
or a white man shining a black mans shoe type of world!!!
Also means when you think of the help the people who cook ,clean,jobs you definitely do not want services the dirty jobs but somebodies gotta do it jobs. The cooks, caretakers, the “help “landscaping”.... minorities make the majority’ of that all throughout lifes history.
Earliest times in history it was done 1st! By force aka “slavery”..
but now it’s “economic “while we know statically what race the owner of such business most likely be who “employ” many.
if that “black dollar”idea wasn’t working then nothing would of ever happened to Tulsa .... but the burning arrest and massacre of TULSA residents (who were mainly black) did happen! What does that mean to you the reader!?
What happened that day was state sanctioned massacre!! And not for the reason the state owned media will have Believe!! Hell It was more than “state” sanctioned. This is more than it just being the “ state”, country”. it’s deeper, more EVIL and OLDER than we think. It’s global! It’s gotten to point where it’s bigger !!!
Here it is:
Intercontinental banking is a power structure house system that “influences” aka RULES governments no different than the old way of the KINGS and QUEENS of history! Who used to do it by force! Influence and move society by force. The results are the same but the tactics are changing. They still rule over us peoples, There always is a ! higher-up! Think about it
in all jobs, wether government or not. These kings queens and their inheritors never went away and have never gone away! They own those who are in positions of power. Their descendents, children, and people aligned with their past kingdoms/ ideologies etc. they are still existing to this days!!!!their ideas and powers and influence never really went away! They just changed it up the way they rule to a more sneaky way. These people are super smart to begin with That’s why they ruled the countries and continents of the world hundreds and thousands of years ago.
The public needs to come together and realize this. We are still being ruled by these people, but in a very different way than the ways of the old time which was brute force.
Today’s tactics are cunning sneaky mischievous. One of our very !!!!!!presidents!!!!!knew exactly all of this! And once he reached presidency must of realized how it really was runnin and was against it! !!!!!
John F Kennedy!!.
Here is a link to a speech that he gave calling it out the best he could publicly going against his masters!!.please hear link before proceeding to read. m.ua-cam.com/video/RhkjYJAHCjM/v-deo.html
We all know what ended up happening to John F. Kennedy he ended up DEAD to another simple bogus story media lie with many loose ends surrounded by so much conspiracy talk ....once you know the truth you’ll never look at life the same!
But to defeat EVIL “we “ need to expose it! Foward/post this message to everyone you know and get right get god! Because those those that own everything are conspiring against us and have true evil intentions for humanity and” majority” of people. Get right with god! And help pass the word of how the evil and its power works so we can figure out a solution globally!! Get right with god today
Thanks for the story .
Thank you for the wisdom, and history my kind educated sisters!🥰
I knew about some of this history but certainly not all of it. Thanks so much for the information! Very interesting, and it provides more context for what's going on with today's social movements.
@Willie Gordon Racism is very much alive today. It's just sneaky
This is heavily misinterpreted, it’s literally Marxist propaganda changing history. This video is saying the wealth had been taken from them, by whom? Just racist people? Hahaha the party has a name, it was the Democrat party. Racist southern Democrats. And while you are at it why not say the Republican Party of Texas was founded by a majority of blacks. I mean really history is pretty hard to come by, EDUCATE your own and yourself. The more you beg the government to help, the enslaved you’ve become.
@@HybridBuild333 You do know the Democrats of that time are the Republicans of today. You my ignorant friend need to educate yourself
@@HybridBuild333Preach
Hence why reparations MUST be paid to Black Americans specifically
what is up with these comments?
Racism at it's finest, Remember this is America!
It’s honestly horrifying.
@wee - These things don't want the furtherance of their devilment exposed. Many upon many of us never even heard of Black Wall Street. All that's ever been told of our past is how we were in bondage, but not how we flourished post slavery.
The protection and maintaining of white supremacy.
@@CeeCheles Exactly
Throughout my entire grade school career, I begged that we learn more about the good things Black people had done in this country rather than only talk about slavery every single year. I even got reprimanded for asking such questions lol. *In 5th grade, our blonde hair, blue eyed teacher, had us kids of color lay on the dirty floor close together, to envision and embody being slaves on a ship*….All those years and we didn’t learn about Black Wall Street ONCE. I believe there is a lesson in the story of Black wall-street that they don’t want us to learn from.
Amazing to watch
We need to learn this history of black wealth and black banks, MDIs and share it until it is widely known and those institutions can become strong again. That time is coming and we need to bring it, help it come into being with knowledge of the past and hope for the future.
It was called Greenwood until it was rebuilt. It was successful but the huge success came after the rebuilding. Everyone worked together more than ever.
Peace & Blessings

Summer is here again with the restriction of movement of and recess to be enjoyed by most workers .;It's an opportunity to utilize and redirect this funds into life changing investments as to secure financial sustainability!!!!
I have secured financial freedom myself investing in bonds , equities , EFT's and some digital currencies .
I'm diversifying myself and recently I added Crypto to my portfolio because of the recent dip in price .I'd say "think like a bear and invest like a bull".
I wanted to invest more in Crypto but I got caught up in the dip so bad so I had to dump
After the dip in price of Cryptocurrency from a higher level, some traders and investors view this as an advantageous time to buy or add to an existing position, I'd advice family and friends to trade rather than holding, because buying and holding doesn't guarantee maximum profit.
It's surprising that people are so scared and discouraged by the sudden drop in value . Most Crypto traders and investors are less knowledgeable about the dynamic of Cryptocurrency . Well , it's a time to buy dip and connect with good traders that knows the Ins and outs of wall street wizardry. I'm much covered and secured about the market thanks to TRADE EXPERT HENRY BROWN 😁✅
Of course they where. Why would anyone think that they weren’t? Just like everyone else they wanted something more and wanted to take pride in their accomplishments to support their community. I don’t recall ever being to about any businesses or communities of any race in school. We where taught about major entrepreneurs like Rockefeller but that was it. The store owners where never mentioned in school.
Yeah but other communities didn't have their accomplishments burned down just for being black
Because they didn’t fundamentally change the world Rockefeller did.. The literal five men that brought the 21st-century to the world were white.. everybody gets butt hurt about that though.
That's because of people like Elder, Owen's ,Sowell etc they want to say that the white are the master race and has all the answers for the good of the country and world. I'll guarantee that they're say that this story is false or a big lie
God I love this series
This are part of history people need to learn im am now learning and i learnt history but again more people can see they can do things and become some one
I remember as a young "white looking" child in Florida, being confused by " whites only" and " negroes only" signs. The confusion is still with me...it makes no sense....not then and not now....like a skin color has anything to do what defines a person : character and ability. I think it ignorant of a person who resorts to this type of mindset...kinda like they are questioning God and his creations. That's just my reasoning.
@Willie Gordon The mindset still perseveres today.... the KKK, for example....is still amoung us. It's as you say, not " 1921"....it's a HUNDRED years later...and that's shamefull.
You will be surprised by the following fun facts then, yay for facts. The segregation laws, or jim crow laws, were approved AND PASSED BY THE DEMOCRAT PARTY. 2 registered members of THE DEMOCRAT NATIONAL COMMITTEE founded the kkk. The democrat party actually voted AGAINST women gaining the right to vote and own land. The democrat party also voted AGAINST the passing of 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments. Finally, there is no historical data to prove that there was any ‘big switch’, a bunch of democrats didn’t magically become republicans as they love to say...but it’s completely false. I bet you didn’t know that every single time that you voted for democrats....makes you think, right buddy?
@@lwhitaker4054....and as fact would have it, the kkk was founded by some of your buddies at the democrat national committee.
@@deplorablelibertarian The first blow to your credibility....was your assumption I am a member of the Democratic Party. Your second assumption....that I don't fact check. Have a nice day.
@@lwhitaker4054....okay, let’s run with that for a minute and see if you really do fact check. At the time, what percentage of the democrat party voted against the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments? Let’s just see if you have all your facts up to date.
I don't understand the down votes..
Fun facts though: The GAP band is an acronym of the location of Black Wall Street. Greenwood Archer and Pike. Their song "you dropped the bomb on me" is a reference to exactly that.
Its because msm using this to further the lefts agenda of convincing everyone they are inherently racist....even though this happened ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO!
@@elblancochingon8138 lol don't leave blank statements. 100 years ago is not long at all. Also, It destroyed the financial foundation for future generations and much more.

If you don't know or care to look at history then you're prolly co- signing in the comments. Black Wallstreets of Tulsa, Bronzeville, Hayti NC, Sweet Auburn, West Ninth Street in Little Rock, Farish Street in MS. Those are just the most well known. & you already know what happened at the main Black Wallstreet...the US bombed it. Black Panthers & other political associations that survive today. As far as organized crime, Frank Lucas & Nicky Barnes are just the most well known, but there's always been operations since it became possible. Harlem & Chi- town just got all the movies for em.
Red lining, Slum Clearance, Urban Renewal all played its part but the final death blow to the development of black capitalism was integration.
Thank you... I absolutely appreciate you

6:12, don't know who she was, but employees looking like that would bring the guys in anyway.
So, what happened to all those black millionaires?
Did they all leave with black money to the white hoods like the ones today do?
In these black towns and neighborhoods the dollar circulated in those neighborhoods at least 6-10 times before leaving.
Their still around . A few of them own resorts and houses in the hamptons. But many of them lost everything during the great depression. Some were banished from ocean front beach homes in los Angeles and their descendants are just gaining back their property.
That's a very interesting question.... One that takes a much deeper dive into the issue than can be gotten from a single video... In short.... There were many cases where communities such as these were intentionally destroyed by whites. In other cases drugs were intentionally introduced into these communities so they ended up destroying themselves from within.. I some cases such communities were literally destroyed physically when interstate highways and railways were run right through them.... There is a great deal of information out there for anyone who's really looking for an answer to that question... Just know that you probably won't find it in the textbooks that are currently being published
That’s my theory, many in the clips/photos already seem to be mixing with the white community
@@skinnylong2023 wrong . They were not mixing with the white community . She is light skin because of slavery in her family . Her great grandmother was raped
Just saw the film on Tubi
Time magazine has know about it from the beginning why didn't you report about it on its anniversary.
That's why we called a Memorial Day
You want to tell unheard stories? Talk about how my fellow Nigerians and Malians sold my ancestors to the Europeans in order to boost their economy. I mean, you’re trying to fuel hatred toward the past right? And hold people today accountable for things their ancestors did, yea?? Let’s hear it, please. Tell how Mansa Musa built his empire on the backs of slaves like the Egyptians did.
No,But Reparations is called for the descendants of American Slaves as proven in this video.. Please try to stay on topic next time thanks!
@@2REAL4MOST I’m a descendant of American slaves. No body owes me anything. Please, understand the depth of the topic next time 😊
@@2REAL4MOST so you think that all tax payers should pay for reparations? What about the 98% that didn’t own slaves back in the day? Why should people who had nothing to do with slavery, pay for others? Then you have to work out which black people were actually from slave ancestry. The whole idea of reparations is flawed, we would spend years figuring out who hurt who throughout history. Where does this stop? Do we go back to the beginning of recorded history?
Slave trading isn’t uncommon through our history but the slave trade that happened in americas was something different and disgusting
@@pinkforeverlove1 America didn’t start that slave trade, it already existed. Africa was all about selling opposing tribes to the Dutch and Spanish. It took the British empire to end most slave trades, and then the African chief who dealt with the British ambassadors was begging them not to stop the trade. He offered anything they wanted, except the slave trade.
It's Sad and probably on purpose that I was never taught about this in school.
Definitely deliberate
There so much injustice against blacks that will never be told.Look at this people are just learning about this.Learn from your old elders, listen to thier stories before its forgotten.
Why wasn't the introduction of welfare into the inner cities mentioned during the economic decline? That's something we didn't learn either and why blacks were given the biggest stereotype for welfare, because it was dumped on them first.
Lady at 8 minute mark totally contradicted herself talking about decades and years of slavery being an issue when this entire video is about how successful black wall street was.. lol smh
Now this is what I like to hear,Black people who made something of themselves and thrived beautifully. I'm definitely proud to be an African American more than ever. I never heard or taught these things in school, and I'm sure this angered some white people,thank you Tom Banks for speaking on this.🙂
Of course With money comes responsibility America's 1% will become a 25% Hopefully the people who receive this money will best back into America
St Luke's was not the first or the largest Black bank in Richmond or the longest surviving. The reason why we don't hear about them is because they were started run by Black men. Why do we do this?
Shalom and many blessings!
Question for everyone.
What would be your initial thoughts on hundreds of thousands of African Americans leaving America at once; Mass Exodus style, back to Africa due to seeing no signs of our circumstances changing in America?
And would you go?
Nope Africans don't like African Americans
In Africa still woman are our driving forces and we can do nothing without them and just imagine that those brothers and sisters have remained in Africa ?
The history you don't learn because ,we haven't rewritten it yet .
Shennette Barrett Scott Thank you
SMH…JEALOUSY.🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Boycott Bank of America
There is another chapter of history that is hidden : the fact that black people also had slaves in the USA
This only add another good reason.black people.who are the descendants of slaves should be given reparations. I'm a 79 black man . I never heard of black wall street.until about five years ago
STILL NO REPARATIONS RIGHT?!?!?!!!!!
That sister speaking is confused.
The reason entire Black business districts disappeared is because Black people stopped supporting those Black businesses at the point that integration started to occur in the late 60's.
Redlining tactics and other practices would have made little differences if Black people stayed united and acted with a unified social and financial CODE when it comes to everyday living in a day to day society.
Desegregation was cool.
But Black people started to integrate WAY to much with Whites in every vain aspect of society - and subsequently stopped supporting each other in those very same aspects in which they were now supporting Whites - particularly financially aswell as other vain endeavours.
That sister needs to step her game up.
She is woefully confused on Black history.
Why do people say African American? I never hear German American. I’m from Britain so I’m curious

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Hebrews 9: 27
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Isaiah 64: 6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Revelation 21: 8
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Romans 5: 8
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Romans 10: 9-10.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Jesus said John 5: 24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
1John 5: 10-13
He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Ephesians 2: 8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
2 Corinthians 5: 21
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

ALL THAT SAY IS ALL TRUTH WHAT CAN BE
Same Jesus that they forced down our ancestors throat..that religion is the downfall of Black ppl..
@@debbiemarquis3231 yes and no yes because they did force it at one time and no because it's not forced on us now but now we know God the right way and their way is of lies oppression and white supremacy. The head of the snake is the Republican party
You know why we weren't taught this its because we aren't taught all the history of what happened in every state every year. We are taught about the points in history where big changes were made the beginning how we became a nation and fought the British. Expandong west. Lincoln and freeing of the slaves Civil war then we skip forward to jim crow and that era. Ww1 We talk about the great depression. Ww2 then the Civil rights movement in the 60s. Then we might touch on the Vietnam War and the anti war sentiment. That's it do you see all the things missing of course it was tragedy but its just not something we specifically talk about since we touch on similar things happening during the Civil War jim crow then the Civil rights movement in the 60s.
OK, Since you know what are you gonna do about it...

History STOCKTON DOES NOT KNOW.
All race, all the time.
Because all racism all the time. You guys are only good with history as long as it paints white people as saviors.
@@pinkforeverlove1 stop projecting your racism onto others
Sad
Most of the people in the photos are clearly very heavily mixed, I wonder if many of the families that built these streets didn't just begin to identify as white as the racism and memory died down
Are you nuts? This was a BLACK town with mostly blue black, dark brown beautiful African descendants who had just fled slavery. The photos were picked and displayed by whoever put this video together but it doesn't reflect ALL the 10,000 people who lived there. And even in these photos the people are of a wide variety of our skin tones. Your ignorant colorism is repulsive. People like Madame CJ Walker a dark skinned woman was the first self made female millionaire of any race in America.
@@lf1496 I mean, my family used to be colored(mixed), and now it’s white, and I know that something like what I described was common in integrated Francophone regions during the imposition of Jim Crow and the French ban so I wondered if similar things may have happened elsewhere. No one said dark skinned people can’t be successful, calm down
@@skinnylong2023 careful. They’ll start to call you a race traitor and not black on top of using the dreaded “calm down” to a woman. Her head might spin.
It doesn't work like that . If a black person changed their identity to white , it's because they grew up surrounded by whites or they wanted to gain white privilege. Typically a black person that loves their culture would never turn from it because the culture , food, music is rich .
@@skinnylong2023 y'all really can't except black peoples accomplishments & greatness
