Black Wall Street refers to the prosperous African American district of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, during the early 20th century. In the early 1900s, Greenwood flourished with a thriving business district predominantly owned and operated by African Americans. The community boasted a wide array of successful businesses, including banks, hotels, theaters, and shops, making it one of the wealthiest black communities in the United States at the time. However, in 1921, Greenwood was tragically destroyed during the Tulsa Race Massacre, when a white mob attacked and razed the district, resulting in hundreds of deaths and leaving thousands homeless.

The significance of Black Wall Street lies not only in its economic success but also in its enduring legacy as a symbol of African American resilience and entrepreneurship in the face of systemic racism and violence. Today, it serves as a powerful reminder of the ongoing struggle for racial justice and equality in America. The story of Black Wall Street highlights the importance of acknowledging and confronting past injustices while also striving to build inclusive and equitable communities for all.
