It was only considered a Red Summer when we fought back. But every hundred years prior as we were getting lynched, burned, raped and killed it was business as usual.

@_jeff _ by your own race what? You think we coined the phrase? A majority killed that summer were still black. You had scared/paranoid white people that would periodically put out articles warning other whites that an impending race war was going to occur. Saying that black people were planning an uprising, and every once in a while they'd start riots and would terrorize black people. 1919 was the year they decided enough and they fought back. They killed a minimal amount of white people and the riots those people started did millions in damage. Burning down court houses, storming jails and freeing suspected murders just so they had more people to kill us.

@@po5333 thing I find most funny is how people lie to themselves about history to make themselves feel better. "You're in a worse of situation because you don't try, not because the system fucked you over". Without picking up a book people create a fantasy that perpetually makes it seem like we were the root cause for everything because it puts blame on us. I decided not to argue because arguing with people who create their own history to resemble a reality their comfortable with is pointless. So yes, I would tend agree with you, the truth hurts. Which is why people reacted the way to what I said.

The only thing I don't like about this is they did not depict how hard the blacks fought back despite being outnumbered. That's an important part of the story. They also left out how the white mobs cut off access to vital supplies coming into the black communities during that time.

born and raised in NYC i knew about this since childhood. samet hing happened in New York 40-50 years earlier (called the draft riots). it also happend in Atlanta, St louis and famously Tulsa. It was very difficult just being black. still is.
Longview, Texas was also, apart of the Red Summer Terrorism attacks on Black America 😥
The term riot shouldnt be used for these such situations. More like massecres and massive displays of racism
There has always been tension between Black Americans and immigrants especially non black immigrants.
Revelation 13:10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints .
She said the real estate companies got together in order to prevent us from moving out , I bet a lot of those companies are still functioning today and we are giving them our money. This is the essence of our problem financial independence creates wealth, power and unity when we strive for our own you destroy us (Rosewood), when we use your businesses we are discriminated against so what are our options?
Money, they've got to have all the money. Sad....
I visited & stayed in what's now called Bronzeville during the anniversary. I also visited the Chicago History Museum. Eve L Ewing's book of poetry harkening back to these events is quite good.

People saying the ‘blacks’ do this and the ‘whites’ do that are really missing the point here, there will be deviants but I would argue the majority of people just want to have equal rights so attacking each other by grouping people by races is not going to help anyone, there is no way everyone can live together with true equality with people attributing certain individuals actions to a whole race its the same with religion and gender not everyone from these groups are against each other, stop alienating them people.
