historical event.
· There are numerous differences in the four sources' narratives. One is that the first two key
sources are accounts from people who witnessed the event firsthand. An additional secondary
source is on the idea of racial frames to examine interracial violence related to the Tulsa race riot
in 1921. One of the secondary sources is a Report by the Oklahoma Commission to examine the
Tulsa Race Riot of 1921.
Describe one narrative that has significantly influenced the contemporary understanding
of your historical event.
· The documentary "Goin Back to T- Town" had a huge influence on contemporary
comprehension of my historical event since the genuine survivors had the opportunity to truly
explain in full what they went through. The documentary includes new articles from the time,
images of the event, and first-hand accounts before many of them died. They could tell their
stories of how the tragedy changed their lives and the descendants of those who survived.
Explain how the chosen narrative helps you better understand your historical research
question. Please provide your revised research question and then explain how the chosen
narrative helps you better understand your historical event.
· The American Experience video "Goin' Back to T-Town" provides valuable insights into the
social, economic, and political impact of the Tulsa Massacre on Tulsa and the United States.
First, the video provides historical context about the events that led up to the Tulsa Massacre,
including the racial tensions and economic disparities that existed in Tulsa at the time. By
understanding the root causes of the massacre, viewers can better appreciate the far-reaching
effects it had on the city and its residents. Secondly, the video explores the immediate aftermath
of the massacre, including the displacement of Black Tulsans and the destruction of the
Greenwood neighborhood. This helps to illustrate the devastating impact the massacre had on the
social and economic fabric of Tulsa, as well as the broader implications for the Black community
in the United States. Ultimately, the video examines the long-term effects of the massacre on
Tulsa's economy and political landscape. It highlights the ways in which the destruction of
Greenwood had lasting economic consequences for Black Tulsans, and how the city's political
leadership failed to adequately address the legacy of the massacre for many years.
Overall, "Goin' Back to T-Town" provides a nuanced and detailed look at the social, economic,
and political impact of the Tulsa Massacre, helping viewers to better understand the ways in
which this tragic event shaped the trajectory of Tulsa and the United States in the decades that
followed.
