This is one of the worst incidents of racial violence in our country’s history, and the effects are still being felt by the Black community 100 years on: Just last week, the last living survivors of the massacre testified before Congress, urging the United States not to forget the damage done: “I have never...seen justice. I pray that one day I will” — Viola Fletcher The Black community deserves justice — and until the lasting economic and political impacts of this massacre and the continued struggle of Black Americans are recognized, we will not have it.
